Flavonoid Glycosides Inhibit Sortase A and Sortase A-Mediated Aggregation of Streptococcus mutans, an Oral Bacterium Responsible for Human Dental Caries.
JOURNAL OF MICROBIOLOGY AND BIOTECHNOLOGY(2016)
摘要
Three flavonoids were isolated from dried flowers of Sophora japonica using repetitive column chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography. The flavonoids were identified as rutin (1), quercetin-3'-O-methyl-3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1 -> 6)-beta-D-glucopyranoside (2), and quercetin (3) on the basis of spectroscopic analysis and comparison of values reported in the literature. These compounds inhibited the action of sortase A (SrtA) from Streptococcus mutans, a primary etiologic agent of human dental caries. The onset and magnitude of inhibition of saliva-induced aggregation of S. mutans treated with compound 1 was comparable to that of untreated S. mutans with a deletion of the srtA gene.
