Dental Caries (Decay, Dental) 03/01/1975 - "Antigenic property of dextransucrase and its possible role in dental caries prophylaxis." 06/01/2023 - "Dextransucrase produced by Streptococcus mutans plays a vital role in the formation of dental caries by synthesizing exopolysaccharides from sucrose, which helps in the attachment of microbes to the tooth surface, causing caries. " 02/01/2013 - "The enzyme inhibition by polyphenols was optimum at pH 7-7.5, while by plant extract was maximum at pH 5-6. These results suggest that plant polyphenols may find potential applications in the prevention and control of dental caries by inhibiting dextransucrase activity in S. "
3.	Rupture 04/20/2011 - "Catalytic elongation of dextran by a single molecule of dextransucrase (DSase) was directly monitored by observing the movements of the positions of a rupture peak, which represented the adhesive force between an isomaltoheptaose (dextran 7-mer)-immobilized probe and a DSase-immobilized mica surface.
