Calcium-binding properties of SSP-5, the Streptococcus gordonii M5 receptor for salivary agglutinin.
Streptococcus gordonii M5 expresses a lectin on its surface (SSP-5) which binds to human salivary agglutinin (SAG). This interaction requires sialic acid residues of SAG and divalent cations and may mediate the colonization of oral tissues by this organism. In this report, we show that the binding o...
