Recombination between gtfB and gtfC Is Required for Survival of a dTDP-Rhamnose Synthesis-Deficient Mutant of Streptococcus mutans in the Presence of Sucrose

The rml genes are involved in dTDP-rhamnose synthesis in Streptococcus mutans. A gene fusion between gtfB and gtfC, which both encode extracellular water-insoluble glucan-synthesizing enzymes, accompanied by inactivation of the rml genes was observed for cells grown in the presence of sucrose. The s...
