Abstract: Objective This study aims to investigate the changes in the expression of surface-associated protein at pH7.0 in Streptococcus mutans isolated from clinical samples. Methods The proteins were extracted from the cells at pH7.0 by using the Homer method. The proteins were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis(SDSPAGE) and 2D gel electrophoresis(2DE) followed by image analysis. The proteins were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption time of flight(MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry and computer-assisted protein sequence analysis. Results Image analysis revealed that 14 high expression protein loci and 8 specific protein loci exist in Streptococcus mutans 593. Specifically, pyruvate kinase and adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette transporter were modulated, and glucose transferase was highly modulated in Streptococcus mutans 593. Conclusion The difference in protein expression of the two clinical isolations may indicate their distinct cariogenic characters.
