 | | Interactions usually are mediated by outer-membrane protein lectins which recognise complex oligomer carbohydrates.8 Fusobacteria coaggregate with the widest range of genera in the mouth,' and this may occur in other body sites; however, they do not coaggregate with other fusobacteria. |
 | | Fusobacteria are found in large numbers in the mouth but, with the possible exception of F. preusnitzii,3,5 are not a major part of the faecal or vaginal flora. |
 | | Fusobacteria are said to play a role in the pathogenesis of premature labour. |
