Structural Dissection and In Vivo Effectiveness of a Peptide Inhibitor of Porphyromonas gingivalis Adherence to Streptococcus gordonii

The interaction of the minor fimbrial antigen (Mfa) with streptococcal antigen I/II (e.g., SspB) facilitates colonization of the dental biofilm by Porphyromonas gingivalis. We previously showed that a 27-mer peptide derived from SspB (designated BAR) resembles the nuclear receptor (NR) box protein-p...
