Genotypes and associated traits in Salmonella enterica Newport strains linked to fresh produce-associated outbreaks in the United States [PDF]
Salmonella enterica is a leading cause of bacterial infection in humans and animals. Newport is among the most prevalent serotypes linked to fresh produce-associated salmonellosis outbreaks in the United States and among the top serotypes that cause ...

Exploring the impact of antibodies on the mechanics of bacterial fimbriae
The discovery of antibiotics in 1928 seemed like a win in the battle against infectious diseases. But, the ability of bacterial pathogens to adapt to these life-saving medicines was underestimated. The bacterial evolution, indeed, led to the emergence of antibiotic resistance as soon as the clinical consumption of antibiotics started.

Chemical inhibition of MrkH-dependent activation of type 3 fimbriae synthesis and biofilm formation by Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]
Biofilm formation by Klebsiella pneumoniae is mediated by the type 3 fimbriae Mrk, and regulated by MrkH and 3’,5’-cyclic diguanylic acid (c-di-GMP). We sought to identify specific chemical inhibitors of K.

Combining sites of bacterial fimbriae
Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2007The few known crystal structures of receptor-binding domains of fimbrial tip adhesins, FimH, PapGII, and F17G, tell us that each of these structures is unique and surprising. Despite little to no sequence identity, common to them all is their variable immunoglobulin (Ig)-fold. Nevertheless, their glycan-binding sites have evolved in different locations

Terminology of Bacterial Fimbriae, or Pili, and their Types
Nature, 1967THE nomenclature of the non-flagellar filamentous appendages of bacteria is in a confused state and the need for clarification is increased by a renewal of interest brought about by findings that suggest that some types of these structures may play a part in bacterial conjugation1–4.

Hydrogels of engineered bacterial fimbriae can finely tune 2D human cell culture
Biomaterials Science, 2021Hydrogels prepared from a bacterial fimbriae are utilized for the 2D cell culture of human dermal fibroblasts. The tunable biochemical and mechanical nature of Caf1 hydrogels allow the modulation of cell morphology and matrix deposition.
