Adsorbed pellicle plays a key role in the bacterial colonization of dental surfaces, mediating nonspecific and selective adherence of micro-organisms. It has been demonstrated that amylase, lysozyme, carbonic anhydrases,
glucosyl tranferase and fructosyltransferase are adsorbed selectively onto acquired pellicle and immobilized in an active conformation in the pellicle layer formed in vivo. This article summarized the research progress on characteristics of adsorbed glucosyl tranferase in acquired pellicle and their functions in the dental pellicle.
