Biochemical characterization of the Escherichia coli surfaceome: a focus on type I fimbriae and flagella

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
The Escherichia coli surfaceome consists mainly of the large surface organelles expressed by the organism to navigate and interact with the surrounding environment. The current study focuses on type I fimbriae and flagella.
