The Fructosyltransferase of Streptococcus salivarius

The nature of the fructans produced by oral streptococci and the β-D-fructosyltransferases (FTFs) that synthesize them from sucrose are considered in this review. Models for the apparent unique surface expression and secretion of the FTF produced by Streptococcus salivarius are discussed in light of...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The nature of the fructans produced by oral streptococci and the β-D-fructosyltransferases (FTFs) that synthesize them from sucrose are considered in this review. Models for the apparent unique surface expression and secretion of the FTF produced by Streptococcus salivarius are discussed in light of recent evidence obtained from the cloning and sequencing of the ftf from this organism.
