Bacterial Adhesins — Their Role In Tubule Invasion And Endodontic Disease
Australian Endodontic Journal, 2002 AbstractBacterial invasion of dentinal tubules is critical to the progression of dental caries and the development of pulp and periapical disease, and may also influence the progression of periodontal disease. However, little is known about the host or bacterial mechanisms involved in tubule invasion.

Proteinaceous Bacterial Adhesins and Their Receptors
CRC Critical Reviews in Microbiology, 1982The adhesion of bacteria to surfaces is an ecologically important property which enables them to colonize their natural habitats. Adhesion between bacteria mediated by sex pili and aggregation substances may also promote gene transfers. In this review, we describe the adhesive properties of bacteria (to eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells, and inert ...

1994
In 1977, Ofek et al. suggested that proteins with lectin-like properties on bacterial surfaces could serve as adhesins that bind the organisms to animal cells. It was found that E. coli, bearing type 1 fimbriae specific for mannose, could agglutinate red cells. The adhesins of many pathogenic bacteria are now thought to be carbohydrate-binding proteins,

Crystallography of Gram-Positive Bacterial Adhesins
2011Both Gram-negative and Gram-positive pathogens display a multitude of proteins and protein assemblies (pili or fimbriae) on their cell surfaces, which are often used for adherence and initiate colonization and pathogenesis. Adhesive proteins known as MSCRAMMs (microbial surface components recognizing adhesive matrix molecules), anchored by a specific ...

Interactions of Bacterial Adhesins with the Extracellular Matrix
1996The role of microbial adhesion to epithelia in mucosa-associated infections has been recognized for a long time. The discovery by Kuusela in 197823 that Staphylococcus aureus strains specifically bind the extracellular matrix (ECM) and plasma glycoprotein fibronectin, Fn, launched a broad field of research on (i) how microbes, i.e. bacteria, parasites,

Breaking the Bond: Recent Patents on Bacterial Adhesins
Recent Patents on DNA & Gene Sequences, 2012Adhesins need to be exposed on the surface of pathogenic bacteria to properly interact with host tissues and allow establishment of the infection. This fact implies that, in theory, one could manage or avoid infection by controlling adhesins' function, and also by indirectly detecting bacteria through their surface-exposed adhesins. Besides, binding of

Regulation and Expression of Bacterial Adhesins
1994There are various levels of complexity in bacterial cell surfaces. In Chapter 4, the main features of the Gram-negative and Gram-positive surfaces were reviewed. It was seen for both cell types that their surfaces were composed of components that associate noncovalently to form a supramolecular structure. These noncovalently associated molecules may be

Bacterial lectinlike adhesins: Determination and specificity
1994Publisher Summary This chapter presents the experimental procedures employed in studies on Escherichia coli lectinlike adhesins, focusing on models for testing adhesins and for determining glycoprotein receptors of the adhesins. Bacterial lectinlike adhesins are proteinaceous structures located on the surface of bacterial cells that mediate the ...
