DOI: 10.1080/20002297.2020.1858001

Abstract: ABSTRACT Background: The cell-surface cysteine proteinases RgpA, RgpB (Arg-gingipain), and Kgp (Lys-gingipain) are major virulence factors of P. gingivalis, a keystone pathogen in the development of destructive periodontal disease. The gingipains function as proteinases and… read more here.
