A New gcrR-Deficient Streptococcus mutans Mutant for Replacement Therapy of Dental Caries
Background. gcrR gene acts as a negative regulator related to sucrose-dependent adherence in S. mutans. It is constructive to test the potential capacity of mutans with gcrR gene deficient in bacteria replacement therapy. Methods. In this study, we constructed the mutant by homologous recombination....
