H-NS is the major repressor of Salmonella Typhimurium Pef fimbriae expression

open access: yesVirulence, 2019
Fimbriae play an important role in adhesion and are therefore essential for the interaction of bacteria with the environments they encounter. Most of them are expressed in vivo but not in vitro, thus making difficult the full characterization of these ...

Factors influencing initial bacterial adhesion to antifouling surfaces studied by single-cell force spectroscopy

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Biofilm formation, a major concern for healthcare systems, is initiated when bacteria adhere to surfaces. Escherichia coli adhesion is mediated by appendages, including type-1 fimbriae and curli amyloid fibers.

Morphological and immunocytochemical analysis of Escherichia coli -specific surface antigens in wildtype strains and in recombinant Vibrio cholerae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Adhesion is the first step in the pathogenesis of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli infections. The genes encoding the most prevalent adhesion factors CFA/I, CS3 and CS6 were cloned into Vibrio cholerae strain CVD 103-HgR and expression of fimbriae was ...

Two intracellular and cell type-specific bacterial symbionts in the placozoan Trichoplax H2

open access: yes, 2019
Placozoa is an enigmatic phylum of simple, microscopic, marine metazoans(1,2). Although intracellular bacteria have been found in all members of this phylum, almost nothing is known about their identity, location and interactions with their host(3-6). We
