Molecular insights into antibiofilm inhibitors of Streptococcus mutans glucosyltransferases through in silico approaches
Abstract Streptococcus mutans, a primary cariogenic bacterium, plays a central role in dental caries, one of the most widespread chronic diseases globally. Glucosyltransferases (GTFs) are key virulence factors in this process, as they synthesize extracellular polysaccharides that contribute to biofi...
