Cultivation of Peptidiphaga gingivicola from subgingival plaque: The first representative of a novel genus of Actinomycetaceae [PDF]

Molecular Oral Microbiology, 2017
SummaryA novel bacterium was isolated from the subgingival plaque of a patient with periodontal disease. Bacterial strain BA112T is a facultative Gram‐positive coccus. It metabolizes alanine, arginine, glycine, histidine, leucine, proline, serine and tyrosine, but does not appear to use carbohydrates.
