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.

Molecular Epidemiology of Plasmid-Mediated Types 1 and 3 Fimbriae Associated with Biofilm Formation in Multidrug Resistant Escherichia coli from Diseased Food Animals in Guangdong, China

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
Types 1 and 3 fimbriae in Enterobacteriaceae play versatile roles in bacterial physiology including attachment, invasion, cell motility as well as with biofilm formation and urinary tract infections.

Antigens Of The Type-1 Fimbriae Of Salmonellae And Other Enterobacteria [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1969
Summary Antigens that determine agglutination reactions, and are distinct from the O-, H- and Vi-antigens, were demonstrated in the type-1 fimbriae of bacteria in fimbriate-phase cultures of salmonellae. Most strains of salmonellae produced fimbriate cultures when grown for a sufficient period, e.g., 24–48 hr, at 37°C in aerobic static broth.

Pseudocatabolite repression of type 1 fimbriae of Escherichia coli [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1982
Previous work on the control of fimbriation in bacteria has demonstrated the importance of environmental factors such as static versus shaking broth and the absence versus the presence of glucose on the degree of fimbriation. When the Pil+ K-12 strain of Escherichia coli CSH50 was grown in static broth, the bacteria grown with glucose were less ...

Purification and Characterization of Type 1 Fimbriae of Salmonella typhi [PDF]

Microbiology and Immunology, 1994
AbstractType 1 fimbriae have been purified from a Salmonella typhi strain of clinical origin. Purified fimbriae retained their ability to bind to erythrocytes in a mannose‐inhibitable fashion and, in doing so, behaved preferentially as a monovalent adhesin.

F9 fimbriae of uropathogenic Escherichia coli are expressed at low temperature and recognise Galβ1-3GlcNAc-containing glycans. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is the leading causative agent of urinary tract infections (UTI) in the developed world. Among the major virulence factors of UPEC, surface expressed adhesins mediate attachment and tissue tropism.

Lrp acts as both a positive and negative regulator for type 1 fimbriae production in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Leucine-responsive regulatory protein (Lrp) is known to be an indirect activator of type 1 fimbriae synthesis in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium via direct regulation of FimZ, a direct positive regulator for type 1 fimbriae production.

Characterization of type 1 and mannose-resistant fimbriae of Erwinia spp [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1987
Type 1 fimbriae from Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora and mannose-resistant fimbriae from Erwinia rhapontici were purified and characterized. The type 1 fimbrillin had an apparent molecular weight of 16,500; that of the mannose-resistant fimbrillin was 18,000.

A previously uncharacterized gene stm0551 plays a repressive role in the regulation of type 1 fimbriae in Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium

BMC Microbiology, 2012
Background Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium produces surface-associated fimbriae that facilitate adherence of the bacteria to a variety of cells and tissues. Type 1 fimbriae with binding specificity to mannose residues are the most commonly found

Pellicle receptors for Actinomyces viscosus type 1 fimbriae in vitro [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1989
Actinomyces viscosus T14V-J1 and its fimbria-deficient mutant strain possessing type 1 fimbriae strongly aggregated with latex beads treated with acidic proline-rich protein 1, basic proline-rich proteins, and proline-rich glycoprotein and its deglycosylated derivative.
