Molecular Detection of Type 1 Fimbriae-Encoding Gene (fimH) in Uropathogenic Escherichia coli Strains Isolated from Outpatients with Urinary Tract Infection [PDF]
Journal of Fasa University of Medical Sciences, 2016 Background & Objective: Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) is one of the most common infections in all age groups. The majority of these infections are caused by Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) strains. Colonization, attachment to uroepithelium, and the

Synthesis and function of Actinomyces naeslundii T14V type 1 fimbriae require the expression of additional fimbria-associated genes [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1997 The nucleotide sequence of the chromosomal DNA flanking the Actinomyces naeslundii (formerly A. viscosus) T14V type 1 fimbrial structural subunit gene (fimP) was determined. Six open reading frames (ORFs), in the order 5' ORF3, ORF2, ORF1,fimP, ORF4, ORF5, ORF6 3', were identified. ORF1 encoded a protein of 408 amino acid residues (Mr = 39,270) and had

Pre-Growth Culture Conditions Affect Type 1 Fimbriae-Dependent Adhesion of Salmonella. [PDF]
Int J Mol Sci, 2020 Among various fimbrial structures used by Salmonella enterica to colonize host tissues, type 1 fimbriae (T1F) are among the most extensively studied. Although some experiments have shown the importance of T1F in the initial stages of Salmonella infection, their exact role in the infection process is not fully known. We suggested that different outcomes

Journal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection, 2023 Background: CpxAR is a two-component system that allows bacteria to reorganize envelope structures in response to extracellular stimuli. CpxAR negatively affects type 1 fimbriae expression in Klebsiella pneumoniae CG43, a hypervirulent strain.

Type 1 fimbriae of Salmonella enteritidis [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1991 Salmonella enteritidis was previously shown to produce fimbriae composed of 14,000-molecular-weight (Mr) fimbrin monomers (J. Feutrier, W. W. Kay, and T. J. Trust, J. Bacteriol. 168:221-227, 1986). Another distinct fimbrial structure, comprising 21,000-Mr fimbrin monomers, has now been identified.

The role of urease in the acid stress response and fimbriae expression in Klebsiella pneumoniae CG43
Journal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection, 2022 Background/purpose: Two urease operons were identified in Klebsiella pneumoniae CG43, ure-1 and ure-2. This study investigates whether a differential regulation of the expression of ure-1 and ure-2 exists and how urease activity influences the acid ...

Comparison of Escherichia coli fimbrial antigen F7 with type 1 fimbriae [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1980 Two Escherichia coli O6:K2:H1 strains, C1212 and C1214, isolated from urinary tract infections, were compared for their capacity to adhere to various cells. After growth on solid medium, only C1212 bacteria agglutinate human erythrocytes and attach to urinary epithelial cells. Both of these reactions are mannose resistant.

Expression of type 1 fimbriae and mannose-sensitive hemagglutinin by recombinant plasmids [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1989 Deletions within the cloned genes (fimA) encoding the type 1 major fimbrial subunits of two isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae resulted in a nonfimbriate but hemagglutinating phenotype after transformation of Escherichia coli HB101 or ORN103. Phenotypic expression of type 1 fimbriae could be restored by transformation with plasmids containing the fimA ...
