Peptidylarginine Deiminase of <i>Porphyromonas gingivalis</i> Modulates the Interactions between <i>Candida albicans</i> Biofilm and Human Plasminogen and High-Molecular-Mass Kininogen

Peptidylarginine Deiminase of <i>Porphyromonas gingivalis</i> Modulates the Interactions between <i>Candida albicans</i> Biofilm and Human Plasminogen and High-Molecular-Mass Kininogen

Microorganisms that create mixed-species biofilms in the human oral cavity include, among others, the opportunistic fungus <i>Candida albicans</i> and the key bacterial pathogen in periodontitis, <i>Porphyromonas gingivalis</i>. Both species use arsenals of virulence factors...
