Clonal characterization of Streptococcus mutans strains by multilocus enzyme electrophoresis

Clonal characterization of Streptococcus mutans strains by multilocus enzyme electrophoresis

Twenty-one Streptococcus mutans strains were clustered by Multilocus Enzyme Electrophoresis (MLEE). Six isoenzymes showed strong infra-specific discriminatory power (M1P, MPI, PLP, NSP, GOT, and LAP). MLEE is a robust technique that may be used to explore clonal diversity of S. mutans isolates in epidemiological surveys.
