Plasticity of the Pyruvate Node Modulates Hydrogen Peroxide Production and Acid Tolerance in Multiple Oral Streptococci

Commensal Streptococcus sanguinis and Streptococcus gordonii are pioneer oral biofilm colonizers. Characteristic for both is the SpxB-dependent production of H(2)O(2), which is crucial for inhibiting competing biofilm members, especially the cariogenic species Streptococcus mutans. H(2)O(2) producti...
