Kinetic and Thermodynamic Characterization of the Bacterial Lectin FimH

open access: yes, 2021
One fundamental aim of drug discovery is the development of new molecular entities that have a considerably advantage over already existing therapies. Urinary tract infections (UTIs) urgently require an alternative to the conventional antibiotic therapy as resistance rates for antibiotics are increasing.

Single nucleotide polypmorphisms of fimH associated with adherence and biofilm formation by serovars of Salmonella enterica

open access: yes, 2011
Type 1 fimbriae produced by serovars of Salmonella are characterized by their ability to agglutinate guinea pig erythrocytes in the absence of d-mannose but not in its presence.

Crystal structure of the FimD usher bound to its cognate FimC-FimH substrate

open access: yes, 2011
Type 1 pili are the archetypal representative of a widespread class of adhesive multisubunit fibres in Gram-negative bacteria. During pilus assembly, subunits dock as chaperone-bound complexes to an usher, which catalyses their polymerization and ...

Conformational ensembles in Klebsiella pneumoniae FimH impact uropathogenesis

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
Klebsiella pneumoniae is an important pathogen causing difficult-to-treat urinary tract infections (UTIs). Over 1.5 million women per year suffer from recurrent UTI, reducing quality of life and causing substantial morbidity and mortality, especially in the hospital setting.

Binding phenotypes of natural S. enterica subspecies I FimH variants.

open access: yes, 2012
Static adhesion of S. Typhimurium LBH4 transformed with plasmids encoding different variants of FimH or plasmids carrying fimH deletion (fimHΔ) to Man-BSA (red bars) and anti-FimHSE antibody (grey bars). The binding of 3H- labeled bacteria was determined

Survival of FimH-expressing enterobacteria in macrophages relies on glycolipid traffic.

open access: yes, 1997
Strains of Escherichia coli persist within the human gut as normal commensals, but are frequent pathogens and can cause recurrent infection. Here we show that, in contrast to E.

The mast cell tumor necrosis factor alpha response to FimH-expressing Escherichia coli is mediated by the glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored molecule CD48.

open access: yes, 1999
Mast cells are well known for their harmful role in IgE-mediated hypersensitivity reactions, but their physiological role remains a mystery. Several recent studies have reported that mast cells play a critical role in innate immunity in mice by releasing
