Glucose PTS Modulates Pyruvate Metabolism, Bacterial Fitness, and Microbial Ecology in Oral Streptococci

L. Zeng, A. R. Walker, R. A. Burne, Z. A. Taylor

This study shows that glucose PTS mutants in oral streptococci alter pyruvate metabolism, enhancing acid tolerance and interspecies interactions, which impacts microbial ecology and dental caries.
