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

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 ...

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-

mBio, 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.

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 ...

Expression of Escherichia coli F-18 Type 1 Fimbriae in the Streptomycin-Treated Mouse Large Intestine [PDF]
, 1991 Escherichia coli F-18, isolated from the feces of a healthy human, makes type 1 fimbriae and is an excellent colonizer of the streptomycin-treated mouse large intestine.

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

Advanced Science, EarlyView.An intelligent engineered probiotic platform is developed for the precision management of inflammatory bowel disease. By integrating surface‐displayed adhesins with an inflammation‐responsive CAT‐SOD‐GPx tripartite fusion system and mucosal repair factors, this programmable system achieves prolonged intestinal retention and multi‐pronged therapy.

Analysis of Escherichia coli strains causing bacteriuria during pregnancy: selection for strains that do not express type 1 fimbriae [PDF]
, 2001 Escherichia coli isolates from patients with bacteriuria of pregnancy were compared by PCR with isolates from patients with community-acquired cystitis for the presence of established virulence determinants.

Do type 1 fimbriae promote inflammation in the human urinary tract?
, 2007 Type 1 fimbriae have been implicated as virulence factors in animal models of urinary tract infection (UTI), but the function in human disease remains unclear.
