HAMAP: Streptococcus mutans complete proteome
General information

Species:  Streptococcus mutans
Species code: STRMU
Taxonomy: Bacteria; Firmicutes; Lactobacillales; Streptococcaceae; Streptococcus (TaxID: 1309) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description: Streptococci are non-motile, Gram-positive cocci with widely varying pathogenic potential that occur in pairs or chains. Streptococcus mutans is the leading cause of dental caries worldwide and is considered to be the most cariogenic of all the oral streptococci. Additionally associated with non-oral infections, principally subacute bacterial endocarditis.
Properties: Presence of flagella: No
Human pathogen: Yes
Interaction: Animal pathogen in Mammalia
Number of membranes: 1
Number of inteins:0
Statistics: Number of STRMU entries in the UniProt Knowledgebase: 1949 (443 in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot + 1506 in UniProtKB/TrEMBL)
