Validation Status Uncharacterized
Organism Information
Organism NamePorphyromonas gingivalis
Domain Bacteria
Classification Family: "Porphyromonadaceae"
Order: "Bacteroidales"
Class: "Bacteroidia"
Division or phylum: "Bacteroidetes"
Taxonomic ID (NCBI) 837
Genome Information
GenBank AP009380.1
EMBL AB016284
Organism Additional Information Porphyromonas gingivalis is a Gram-negative anaerobic bacterium responsible for causing adult periodontal disease, a chronic inflammatory condition of the periodontal tissues. It is the source of a number of virulence factors that are thought to be important for deregulation of innate and inflammatory systems in the host.

Subcellular LocationSurface
Function Minor fimbria of P. gingivalis intimately interacts with the SspB protein of Streptococcus gordonii.This interaction might aid in P. gingivalis colonization of plaque biofilm before it invades gingival tissue. The minor fimbria targets DC-SIGN on DCs for entry into DCs and that this targeting has the immunological consequence of dampening the immune response.
Glycosylation Status
Technique(s) used for Glycosylation DetectionProQ staining
Glycan Information
Glycan Annotation The minor fimbria contain the DC-SIGN-targeting carbohydrates fucose (1.35 nmol/mg), mannose (2.68 nmol/mg), N-acetylglucosamine (2.27 nmol/mg), and N-acetylgalactosamine (0.652 nmol/mg).
