Resumen

Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) es el principal microorganismo asociado a caries dental en humanos. Presenta en su superficie una proteína, PAc, que es responsable de la adhesión inicial de éste a la película adquirida; su peso molecular ha sido reportado en la mayoría de los estudios de 190 KDa; está constituida por 1561 aminoácidos, codificados por un gen de 4695 pb, denominado pac. Esta proteína ha sido considerada como posible antígeno vacunal contra la caries porque en su interior se encuentran dos regiones repetitivas de gran interés; una es la región repetitiva A; rica en alanina, está localizada en el extremo terminal amino, en el cual se ha identificado un segmento importante cuya secuencia comprende los aminoácidos 365 a 377, identificado como epítope celular T y B, además de ser epítope de adhesión. La otra región repetitiva es conocida como P, por ser rica en prolina; se encuentra localizada hacia el centro de la molécula y dentro de ésta se han identificado varios epítopes celulares T, B y de adhesión, destacándose principalmente el segmento comprendido entre los aminoácidos 1095-1114, el cual contiene los tres epítopes de interés.
