Streptococcus salivariussubsp. thermophilus is a streptococcusbacteria used to produce yogurt and some cheeses. It works symbiotically with Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus.[1] Both are homofermentative, produce lactic acid quantitatively in addition to carbon dioxide and alcohol. The optimum temperature for their growth is about 42°C. Species S. faecalis S. pneumoniae S. pyogenes S. suis S. viridans Streptococcus is a genus of spherical, Gram-positive bacteria of the phylum Firmicutes. ...

Streptococcus salivarius colonizes the mouth and upper respiratory tract of people just a few hours after birth, making further exposure to the bacteria harmless. The bacteria does have some negative effects, though, playing a major role in tooth decay and, rarely, finding its way into the bloodstream, where it has been implicated in septicemia cases in people with neutropenia.

The Macrolide Efflux Genetic Assembly of Streptococcus pneumoniae Is Present in Erythromycin-Resistant Streptococcussalivarius
Structure and dissemination of a chromosomal insertion element encoding macrolide efflux in Streptococcus pneumoniae.
Streptococcus pneumoniae causes 95 percent of all bacterial pneumonia.
An enzyme on the cell surface of Streptococcus mutans, glycosyl transferase, is apparently involved in initial attachment of the bacterial cells to the tooth surface and in the conversion of sucrose to dextran and levan polymers (glucans) which form the extracellular matrix of plaque.
Streptococcus mutans appears to be important in the initiation of dental caries because its activities lead to colonization of the tooth surfaces, plaque formation, and localized demineralization of tooth enamel.
