Mutacin II, a Bactericidal Lantibiotic from Streptococcus mutans (1995)
Chikindas, Michael L., Novák, Jan, Driessen, Arnold J.M., Konings, Wil N., Schilling, Kurt M., Caufield, Page W.
Mutacin II is a lantibiotic that is produced by group II Streptococcus mutans. It inhibits the growth of other streptococci as well as many other gram-positive microorganisms by a hitherto unknown...

Genetic characterization of a Tn916 transposon mutant, Streptococcus mutans T8-1, defective in mutacin II production, revealed that the transposon was inserted into the 3′ region of a...
Identification of Streptococcus sanguinis with a PCR-Generated Species-Specific DNA Probe
Li, Yihong, Pan, Yaping, Qi, Fengxia, Caufield, Page W.
The objective of the present study was to design a PCR-generated DNA probe and determine the specificity of the probe for the identification of clinical isolates of Streptococcus sanguinis. To do...
