Glycosyltransferase activity incorporating 14C-radioactivity from [14C]sucrose into endogenous acceptor was demonstrated in human dental plaque. 2. The enzyme was localized in dental plaque into two forms: (a) associated form to bacteria (pellet 10,000 g) and (b) released as an extracellular form (supernatant 10,000 g). 3. The reaction product was insoluble in 95% ethanol, soluble in trichloroacetic acid, and it was a mixture of saccharides with different sizes, as was demonstrated by column chromatography. 4. Exogenous activity with Dextran T-10 as substrate was also demonstrated, and it represented 9% of the total endogenous activity. 5. Characterization of the extracellular glycosyltransferase, and comparative results with glycosyltransferase secreted by oral bacteria in cultures medium are discussed.
