BMC Microbiology, 2008 Background Type 1 fimbriae are the most commonly found fimbrial appendages on the outer membrane of Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium. Previous investigations indicate that static broth culture favours S.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 The yqiC gene of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) regulates bacterial growth at different temperatures and mice survival after infection. However, the role of yqiC in bacterial colonization and host immunity remains unknown.

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

Identification of a Conserved Chromosomal Region Encoding Klebsiella pneumoniae Type 1 and Type 3 Fimbriae and Assessment of the Role of Fimbriae in Pathogenicity [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 2009 ABSTRACT Type 3 fimbriae are expressed by most clinical Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates and mediate adhesion to host structures in vitro. However, the role of type 3 fimbriae in K.

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 ...

Damping properties of type 1 fimbriae
, 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

Biology, 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-

Inversion-independent phase variation of type 1 fimbriae in Escherichia coli [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1993 The roles of fimB and fimE in the phase-variable expression of type 1 fimbriae in Escherichia coli were examined. A method was developed to study the effects of fimB and fimE on both recombination of the fim invertible element and fimbrial expression. The method used an allelic exchange procedure consisting of two steps. The first step, construction of

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 ...
