Distinct mutations led to inactivation of type 1 fimbriae expression in Shigella spp. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Shigella spp. are responsible for bacillary dysentery in humans. The acquisition or the modification of the virulence plasmid encoding factors promoting entry of bacteria into and dissemination within epithelial cells was a critical step in the evolution

How type 1 fimbriae help Escherichia coli to evade extracellular antibiotics. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2016 AbstractTo survive antibiotics, bacteria use two different strategies: counteracting antibiotic effects by expression of resistance genes or evading their effects e.g. by persisting inside host cells. Since bacterial adhesins provide access to the shielded, intracellular niche and the adhesin type 1 fimbriae increases bacterial survival chances inside ...

Type 1 fimbriae, a colonization factor of uropathogenic Escherichia coli, are controlled by the metabolic sensor CRP-cAMP. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2009 Type 1 fimbriae are a crucial factor for the virulence of uropathogenic Escherichia coli during the first steps of infection by mediating adhesion to epithelial cells. They are also required for the consequent colonization of the tissues and for invasion

Functional heterogeneity of type 1 fimbriae of Escherichia coli [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1992 Escherichia coli and other members of the family Enterobacteriaceae express surface fibrillar structures, fimbriae, that promote bacterial adhesion to host receptors. Type 1 fimbriae possess a lectinlike component, FimH, that is commonly thought to cause binding to mannose-containing oligosaccharides of host receptors.
