Inactivation of the pgmA gene in Streptococcus mutans significantly decreases biofilm-associated antimicrobial tolerance
Screening of a Streptococcus mutans mutant library indicated that pgmA mutants displayed a reduced biofilm-associated tolerance toward gentamicin. The biofilms formed by the S. mutanspgmA mutant also displayed decreased tolerance towards linezolid and vancomycin compared to wild-type biofilms. On th...
