Structural and antigenic characterization of a novel genotype of Mfa1 fimbriae in Porphyromonas gingivalis

open access: yesJournal of Oral Microbiology, 2023
Background Mfa1 fimbriae of the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis are responsible for biofilm formation and comprise five proteins: Mfa1–5. Two major genotypes, mfa170 and mfa153, encode major fimbrillin.

Analysis of Spleen-Induced Fimbria Production in Recombinant Attenuated Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium Vaccine Strains

open access: yesmBio, 2017
Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium genome encodes 13 fimbrial operons. Most of the fimbriae encoded by these operons are not produced under laboratory conditions but are likely to be synthesized in vivo.

Pili (fimbriae) of Branhamella species [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Journal of Medicine, 1990
Pili (fimbriae) have frequently been found to be involved in the attachment of bacteria to mucosal epithelial cells, an important initial step in the disease process. The purpose of this study was to determine if Branhamella catarrhalis expresses type 4 pili.Piliated B.
