Piglet ileal mucus contains protein and glycolipid (galactosylceramide) receptors specific for Escherichia coli K88 fimbriae [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1993
The aim of this study was to characterize the Escherichia coli K88-specific receptors in mucus from the small intestines of 35-day-old piglets with the isogenic strains E. coli K-12(pMK005) (K88+) and E. coli K-12(pMK002) (K88-). These strains differed only in that the latter one cannot produce intact K88 fimbriae because of a deletion in the gene ...

PapB Family Regulators as Master Switches of Fimbrial Expression

open access: yesMicroorganisms
Some bacterial species within the Enterobacteriaceae family possess different types of fimbrial (pili) adhesins that promote adherence to cells and colonization of host tissues.

Escherichia coli O157:H7 Acid Sensitivity Correlates with Flocculation Phenotype during Nutrient Limitation

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Shiga toxin producing Escherichia coli (STEC) strains vary in acid resistance; however, little is known about the underlying mechanisms that result in strain specific differences.

Regulation of bistability in the std fimbrial operon of Salmonella enterica by DNA adenine methylation and transcription factors HdfR, StdE and StdF [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Bistable expression of the Salmonella enterica std operon is controlled by an AND logic gate involving three transcriptional activators: the LysR-type factor HdfR and the StdE and StdF regulators encoded by the std operon itself.

Identification of the genetic determinants of Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium that may regulate the expression of the type 1 fimbriae in response to solid agar and static broth culture conditions

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2008
Background Type 1 fimbriae are the most commonly found fimbrial appendages on the outer membrane of Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium. Previous investigations indicate that static broth culture favours S.

Virulence Factors in Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKP) has spread globally since first described in the Asian Pacific Rim. It is an invasive variant that differs from the classical K.

Ovarian Cancer: Epidemiology, Disease Mechanisms, New Diagnosis and Treatment Strategies, and Research Directions

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ovarian cancer (OC) continues to be the deadliest gynecological malignancy and a significant cause of cancer‐related mortality among women worldwide. Standard treatment strategies typically entail platinum‐based chemotherapy in conjunction with cytoreductive surgery.

Draft Genome Sequence of an Escherichia coli O157:H43 Strain Isolated from Cattle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Here we report the draft genome sequence of an Escherichia coli O157:H43 strain, designated T22, with an atypical virulence gene profile and isolated from healthy cattle.

Dust mite-derived Enterobacterial fimbriae H protein enforces the allergen specific immunotherapy in asthma mice

open access: yesAllergologia et Immunopathologia, 2020
The mite alimentary canal contains plenty of microbiota. It is accepted that some of the microbial products function as adjuvants to speed up immune responses.We identified five bacterial proteins from dust mite, and Enterobacterial fimbriae H (FimH) was one of them.

Synthesis of a Putative Subtype Specific Antigenic Heptapeptide from Escherichia Coli K88 ad Protein Fimbriae. [PDF]

open access: yesActa Chemica Scandinavica, 1986
The heptapeptide methyl ester Phe-Asn-Glu-Asn-Met-Ala-Tyr-OMe covering the amino acid sequence of the region 213-219 of Escherichia Coli K88 ad protein fimbriae is synthesized using N alpha-t-butyloxycarbonyl-protection and benzyl groups for side-chain-protection.
