Genome sequence of Lacticaseibacillus paracasei G277-1.1, a clinical strain that forms enhanced biofilms with Streptococcus mutans

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: ABSTRACT Lacticaseibacillus paracasei G277-1.1 was isolated from dental plaque of a patient with severe early childhood caries. It forms synergistic biofilms with Streptococcus mutans in vitro . Here, we report its high-quality genome sequence, revealing insights on its inter-species interaction with S. mutans .
