The maltodextrin (maltose through maltoheptaose) acceptor reactions of two Streptococcus mutans 6715 glucosyltransferases (GTF-I and GTF-S) were studied. The acceptor product structures were determined by comparing them with the known structures of the acceptor products of Leuconostoc mesenteroides
The production of fructan from sucrose by the action of the fructosyltransferase(s) (FTase) of oral streptococci appears to be dependent upon metal ions, but the exact nature of this dependence has not yet been elucidated'\*\*. In the case of the purified extracellular FTase of Streptococcus mutans,
