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.

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

Escherichia coli-mediated impairment of ureteric contractility is uropathogenic E. coli specific. [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Ureters are fundamental for keeping kidneys free from uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC), but we have shown that 2 strains (J96 and 536) can subvert this role and reduce ureteric contractility. To determine whether this is (1) a widespread

Demonstration of regulatory cross-talk between P fimbriae and type 1 fimbriae in uropathogenic Escherichia coli [PDF]

Microbiology, 2006
The majority ofEscherichia colistrains isolated from urinary tract infections have the potential to express multiple fimbriae. Two of the most common fimbrial adhesins are type 1 fimbriae and pyelonephritis-associated pili (Pap). Previous research has shown that induced, plasmid-based expression of a Pap regulator,papB, and its close homologues can ...

Electron Transport Chain Is Biochemically Linked to Pilus Assembly Required for Polymicrobial Interactions and Biofilm Formation in the Gram-Positive Actinobacterium Actinomyces oris. [PDF]

, 2017
The Gram-positive actinobacteria Actinomyces spp. are key colonizers in the development of oral biofilms due to the inherent ability of Actinomyces to adhere to receptor polysaccharides on the surface of oral streptococci and host cells.

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.

The Non-Fimbriate Phenotype Is Predominant among Salmonella enterica Serovar Choleraesuis from Swine and Those Non-Fimbriate Strains Possess Distinct Amino Acid Variations in FimH.

PLoS ONE, 2016
Although most Salmonella serovars are able to infect a range of animal hosts, some have acquired the ability to cause systemic infections of specific hosts.

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

Highly conserved type 1 pili promote enterotoxigenic E. coli pathogen-host interactions [PDF]

, 2017
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC), defined by their elaboration of heat-labile (LT) and/or heat-stable (ST) enterotoxins, are a common cause of diarrheal illness in developing countries.

Type 1 Fimbria-Mediated Adhesion of Enteric Bacteria to Grass Roots [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1985
Type 1 fimbriae of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterobacter agglomerans mediated bacterial adhesion to the roots of bluegrass, Poa pratensis. Purified, radiolabeled fimbriae bound to grass roots in vitro; binding was inhibited by α-methyl- d ...
