The detection of fimbriae by Transmission electron microscope in Salmonella isolated locally from patient in Kirkuk city and compared with some standard isolates . [PDF]

open access: yesKirkuk Journal of Science, 2009
This study include the detection of fimbriae by Transmission electron microscope in three type of locall isolates of Salmonella (S.typhi , S.typhimurium, S.montevideo) and compared with their standard strains (S.typhi , S.paratyphi B , S.

The shaft of the type 1 fimbriae regulates an external force to match the FimH catch bond. [PDF]

open access: yesBiophys J, 2013
Type 1 fimbriae mediate adhesion of uropathogenic Escherichia coli to host cells. It has been hypothesized that due to their ability to uncoil under exposure to force, fimbriae can reduce fluid shear stress on the adhesin-receptor interaction by which ...

Damping properties of type 1 fimbriae

open access: yes, 2014
Type 1 fimbriae mediate adhesion of uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) to host cells. It has been hypothesized that fimbriae can, by their ability to uncoil under exposure to force, reduce fluid shear stress on the adhesin-receptor interaction by which the bacterium adheres to the surface. In this work we develop a model that describes how the force

Expression of type 1 fimbriae and mannose-sensitive hemagglutinin by recombinant plasmids [PDF]

open access: yesInfection 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 ...

Effect of Aminophenyl and Aminothiahexyl α-D-Glycosides of the Manno-, Gluco-, and Galacto-Series on Type 1 Fimbriae-Mediated Adhesion of Escherichia coli

open access: yesBiology, 2013
Adhesion of bacteria to the glycosylated surface of their target cells is typically mediated by fimbrial lectins, exposed on the bacterial surface. Among the best-investigated and most important fimbriae are type 1 fimbriae, for which α-d-mannopyranoside-

Kinetic analysis of the synthesis and assembly of type 1 fimbriae of Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1984
The adhesive organelles (type 1 fimbriae) of K-12 and other isolates of Escherichia coli are composed of identical 17,000-dalton subunits. We examined the assembly of these subunits into fimbrial organelles. After synthesis, the nascent subunits were first processed and then assembled into the organelles; the assembly step took almost 3 min in log ...

Type 1 fimbriae deliver an LPS- and TLR4-dependent activation signal to CD14-negative cells

open access: yes, 2001
Fimbriae target bacteria to different mucosal surfaces and enhance the inflammatory response at these sites. Inflammation may be triggered by the fimbriae themselves or by fimbriae-dependent delivery of other host activating molecules such as ...

Evolutionary Analysis Points to Divergent Physiological Roles of Type 1 Fimbriae in Salmonella and Escherichia coli

open access: yesmBio, 2013
Salmonella and Escherichia coli mannose-binding type 1 fimbriae exhibit highly similar receptor specificities, morphologies, and mechanisms of assembly but are nonorthologous in nature, i.e., not closely related evolutionarily.

Comparison of Escherichia coli fimbrial antigen F7 with type 1 fimbriae [PDF]

open access: yesInfection 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.

Living Microbial Drugs

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The introduction outlines the review scope. Microbial cell factories as living drugs cover host–gut microbiota, bacteria, yeast, and other microbial systems, with comparative host advantages. Engineering strategies include synthetic circuits, quorum sensing, and memory.
