A eukaryotic-type serine/threonine protein kinase is required for biofilm formation, genetic competence, and acid resistance in Streptococcus mutans.

Haitham Hussain¹, Pavel Branny, Elaine Allan.

Abstract

We report an operon encoding a eukaryotic-type serine/threonine protein kinase (STPK) and its cognate phosphatase (STPP) in Streptococcus mutans. Mutation of the gene encoding the STPK produced defects in biofilm formation, genetic competence, and acid resistance, determinants important in caries pathogenesis.
