Polyphenol-Rich Extract from Propolis Reduces the Expression and Activity of Streptococcus mutans Glucosyltransferases at Subinhibitory Concentrations

, 2020
Tooth decay is an infectious disease, whose main causative agent identified is Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans). Diverse treatments have been used to eradicate this microorganism, including propolis.

Two tobacco genes induced by infection, elicitor and salicylic acid encode glucosyltransferases acting on phenylpropanoids and benzoic acid derivatives, including salicylic acid

, 1998
Two tobacco genes (TOGT) with homology to glucosyltransferase genes known to be induced by salicylic acid (SA) also responded rapidly to a fungal elicitor or to an avirulent pathogen.

Functions and regulation of cytokinin glucosyltransferases

Cytokinins can be conjugated to N- and O-glucosides. While N-glucosylation generally leads to irretrievable loss of activity, O-glucosides are thought to play an important role in cytokinin storage and homeostasis since they can be hydrolyzed to the ...

Structural and functional divergence of the newly identified GtrIc from its Gtr family of conserved Shigella flexneri serotype-converting glucosyltransferases

, 2016
Glucosyltransferases (Gtrs) and O-acetyltransferase (Oac) are integral membrane proteins embedded within the cytoplasmic membrane of Shigella flexneri.

Glucosyltransferases of Viridans Streptococci Are Modulins of Interleukin -6 Induction in Infective Endocarditis

, 2008
The glucosyltransferases (GTFs) of viridans streptococci, common pathogens of infective endocarditis, are extracellular proteins that convert sucrose into exopolysaccharides and glucans.

Glucosyltransferase activity-based screening identifies tannic acid as an inhibitor of Streptococcus mutans biofilm

Frontiers in Microbiology
Dental caries is a biofilm-related chronic infectious disease. Streptococcus mutans is the core microorganism that leads to caries, with its capacity to form biofilms via glucosyltransferases (Gtfs) being the predominant virulence factor contributing to ...

Study of ceramide glucosyltransferase

, 2001
Ceramide glucosyltransferase (CGT) is a key enzyme in glycosphingolipid (GSL) biosynthesis in eukaryotic cells. Inhibition of enzyme activity by an N-alkylated imino sugar, N-butyl-deoxynojirimycin (NB-DNJ), has been evaluated for the therapeutic treatment of inherited glycosphingolipid lysosomal storage diseases.
