PDB ID 3AIE

This enzyme is a glucansucrase from Streptococcus mutans.[1]. These enzymes are large and extracellularly expressed by few other bacterial species.[2]. Their main function is to catalyze the production of glucose polymers from sucrose substrates.[1]. These polymers comprise the dental plaque that promotes tooth decay in humans. For this reason, knowledge of the structure, genome, and proteome of this enzyme is critical for the development of an inhibitor in an effort to reduce the prevalence of cavities and periodontal disease.
