Transcriptional organization of the Escherichia coli pilus adhesin K99
Molecular Microbiology, 1993SummaryThe production of the Escherichia coli pilus adhesin K99 requires the expression of eight unique proteins: FanA‐H. The transcriptional organization of the K99 operon was investigated by Northern blot analysis. Four RNAs of 0.54, 1.4, 2.5 and 3.5kb were detected.

Glycolipid Receptors of F1C Fimbrial Adhesin of Uropathogenic Escherichia coli
2005The ability of F1C fimbriated bacteria to bind to the human urinary tract could be demonstrated by performing binding studies using several different cell lines as shown in table 1, and by performing direct binding assay using human bladder epithelial cell line RT112 as shown in Fig 1.

Anti-Escherichia Coli Adhesin Activity of Cranberry and Blueberry Juices
1996For many decades, cranberry juice has been recommended by physicians in North America for the treatment or prevention of urinary tract infections (UTI). However, until recently, no experimental evidence has been presented for the purported beneficiary effect of the juice, nor for its mechanism of action.

K88 Adhesins of Enterotoxigenic Escherichia Coli and their Porcine Enterocyte Receptors
1999The three antigenic variants of the K88 fimbrial adhesin (K88ab, K88ac, and K88ad) of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) each exhibit unique specificity with regard to their hemagglutination characteristics. The variants are also unique in the specificity of their binding to the brush borders of enterocytes isolated from pigs with different ...

Adhesins of EnterotoxigenicEscherichia coliStrains That Infect Animals
EcoSal Plus, 2005The first described adhesive antigen ofEscherichia colistrains isolated from animals was the K88 antigen, expressed by strains from diarrheic pigs. The K88 antigen was visible by electron microscopy as a surface-exposed filament that was thin and flexible and had hemagglutinating properties.

Role of fimbrial adhesins in the pathogenesis of Escherichia coli infections
Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1992Escherichia coli strains are able to cause intestinal (enteritis, diarrhoeal diseases) and extraintestinal (urinary tract infections, sepsis, meningitis) infections. Most pathogenic E. coli strains produce specific fimbrial adhesins, which represent essential colonization factors: intestinal E.
