  • Title: Ribotype diversity of Actinomyces with similar intraoral tropism but different types of N-acetyl-beta-D-galactosamine binding specificity.
    Author: Hallberg K, Holm C, Hammarström KJ, Kalfas S, Strömberg N.
    Journal: Oral Microbiol Immunol; 1998 Jun; 13(3):188-92. PubMed ID: 10093534.
    Abstract:
    Sixty-three isolates of Actinomyces naeslundii genospecies 1 and 2 and Actinomyces odontolyticus from three subjects clustered into 22 ribotypes. Unique ribotypes were found in the subjects and within individual tissue sites (bucca, tooth and tongue). A odontolyticus ribotypes shared tongue-specific binding properties, while those of genospecies 1 and 2 from buccal and tooth surfaces shared different types of N-acetyl-beta-D-galactosamine binding specificity.
