Permissive linker insertion sites in the outer membrane protein of 987P fimbriae of Escherichia coli

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1994
The FasD protein is essential for the biogenesis of 987P fimbriae of Escherichia coli. In this study, subcellular fractionation was used to demonstrate that FasD is an outer membrane protein. In addition, the accessibility of FasD to proteases established the presence of surface-exposed FasD domains on both sides of the outer membrane.

Analysis of Human miRNA Derived From Bladder Epithelial Cells Infected With Uropathogenic Escherichia coli

open access: yesAPMIS, Volume 134, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been shown to regulate many cellular processes and to play a role in host‐pathogen interactions. However, the role of miRNA in urinary tract infection (UTI) remains unclear. The aim of this study was to analyze and compare miRNAs from supernatants of human bladder epithelial cells infected with ESBL‐producing (ESBL019 ...

Down-Regulation of Flagellar, Fimbriae, and Pili Proteins in Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (NDM-4) Clinical Isolates: A Novel Linkage to Drug Resistance

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
The emergence and spread of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae infections have worsened the current situation worldwide, in which totally drug-resistant strains (bad bugs) are becoming increasingly prominent. Bacterial biofilms enable bacteria to

Regulation and binding properties of S fimbriae cloned from E. coli strains causing urinary tract infection and meningitis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
S fimbriae are able to recognize receptor molecules containing sialic acid and are produced by pathogenic E. coli strains causing urinary tract infection and menigitis.

Identification of Type 3 fimbriae in uropathogenic Escherichia coli reveals a role in biofilm formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) is the most common nosocomial infection in the United States. Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC), the most common cause of CAUTI, can form biofilms on indwelling catheters.

Global Marine Fishery Stock Productivity Under Climate Change

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2026.
In this uniquely extensive global analysis on the productivity of commercial fishery stocks, a common factor was the existence of pronounced heterogeneity, as documented for 710 stocks in the undertaken hindcast over the last decades. Importantly, both winners and losers appear under on‐going climate change, and then seemingly are equally present ...

Structural and functional characterization of shaft, anchor, and tip proteins of the Mfa1 fimbria from the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Very little is known about how fimbriae of Bacteroidetes bacteria are assembled. To shed more light on this process, we solved the crystal structures of the shaft protein Mfa1, the regulatory protein Mfa2, and the tip protein Mfa3 from the periodontal ...

The dysregulation of innate immunity by Porphyromonas gingivalis in the etiology of Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, Volume 299, Issue 3, Page 328-348, March 2026.
Abstract The etiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) remains under active debate. In this perspective, we explore the hypothesis that a primarily infection‐caused chronic dysregulation and weakening of human innate immunity via the underexpression, degradation, and inactivation of innate immune proteins necessary for direct antimicrobial effects and ...

Enterobacter Species: Opportunistic Human and Plant Pathogens With Plant‐Beneficial Traits

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
The pathogen profile on Enterobacter species synthesises current knowledge on host range, disease symptoms, plant‐beneficial traits and compares genomic features within the genus. ABSTRACT Enterobacter species occur across diverse habitats and are best known for causing opportunistic and nosocomial infections in humans.
