摘要
Exogenously added polyphenoloxidase (EC 1.14.18.1), an enzyme which oxidizes tyrosine residues and is commonly found in many dietary components, abolished the aggregation of Streptococcus sobrinus 6715 by high-molecular-weight dextran. The enzyme decreased glucan-binding lectin and/or glucosyltransferase I activities.
