Sequence analysis of the glucosyltransferase A gene (gtfA) from Streptococcus mutans Ingbritt

Abstract

The complete nucleotide sequence of a 2.4-kilobase fragment containing the glucosyltransferase A gene (gtfA) of Streptococcus mutans Ingbritt (serotype c) was determined. The gtfA gene contains 481 codons and specifies a protein of molecular weight 55,665. There is no evidence of a signal peptide in the protein or that the glucosyltransferase A enzyme is secreted. No sequence homologies were observed between the gtfA gene or protein and the gtfI or gtfB gene and its protein.
