Advancement of the 10-species subgingival Zurich Biofilm model by examining different nutritional conditions and defining the structure of the in vitro biofilms [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Periodontitis is caused by a highly complex consortium of bacteria that establishes as biofilms in subgingival pockets. It is a disease that occurs worldwide and its consequences are a major health concern.

Physical map of the Treponema denticola circular chromosome [PDF]
A physical map of the Treponema denticola ATCC 33520 genome was constructed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and DNA hybridization. The organism possesses a single, circular chromosome of approximately 3.0 Mbp and a 2.6-kbp circular plasmid, pTD1. The physical map of the A+T-rich genome was constructed with the rare-cutting restriction enzymes AscI,

Native cellular architecture of Treponema denticola revealed by cryo-electron tomography [PDF]
Using cryo-electron tomography, we are developing a refined description of native cellular structures in the pathogenic spirochete Treponema denticola. Tightly organized bundles of periplasmic flagella were readily observed in intact plunge-frozen cells.
