Epidemiology and Infection, 1970 SUMMARYThere are situations in which direct observation of the attachment of antibody molecules may be the simplest method of detecting antigen-antibody reactions. Applied to the study of the sex pili determined by a number of transmissible bacterial plasmids, the method has distinguished four serotypes in the F-like class and two in the I-like class ...

Crystal structure of the P pilus rod subunit PapA [PDF]
, 2007 P pili are important adhesive fibres involved in kidney infection by uropathogenic Escherichia coli strains. P pili are assembled by the conserved chaperone-usher pathway, which involves the PapD chaperone and the PapC usher.

Environment International, 2020 Interspecies electron transfer plays an important role in syntrophic methanogenesis. Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) between syntrophic oxidizers and methanogens via conductive pili has been only confirmed in some specific co-cultures.

Annals of Dermatology, 2014 Dear Editor: Cutaneous pili migrans is a rare skin condition in which a hair shaft or fragment is embedded in the superficial skin. It is characterized by a creeping eruption with black-line like hair mimicking cutaneous larva migrans1. Removal of the black hair shaft heals the lesion completely2,3. Herein, we report a case of cutaneous pili migrans

Cryo-electron microscopy reveals two distinct type IV pili assembled by the same bacterium
Nature Communications, 2020 Type IV pili are flexible filaments on the surface of bacteria, consisting of a helical assembly of pilin proteins. They are involved in bacterial motility (twitching), surface adhesion, biofilm formation and DNA uptake (natural transformation). Here, we

Journal of Molecular Biology, 2009 Exchange of DNA between bacteria involves conjugative pili. While the prevailing view has been that F-pili are completely retracted before single-stranded DNA is passed from one cell to another, it has recently been reported that the F-pilus, in addition to establishing the contact between mating cells, serves as a channel for passing DNA between ...
