Association of long surface appendages with adherence-related functions of the gram-positive species Actinomyces naeslundii
J Bacteriol.
1978 Jun.
Abstract
Electron microscopy of new isolates of gram-positive Actinomyces naeslundii demonstrated long, fragile appendages. Removal of the appendages impaired attachment to epithelial cells and reaggregation, thus implicating them in attachment-related functions.
