Struktur, Assemblierung und Stabilität von Typ-1-Pili [PDF]
Type 1 pili are extracellular, supramolecular protein complexes required for the attachment of pathogenic E. coli strains to host cells. Hundreds to thousands of protein subunits are assembled within minutes in vivo and form filaments with unique kinetic

Selective Binding of Mannose-Encapsulated Gold Nanoparticles to Type 1 Pili in Escherichia coli
The synthesis, characterization and biological application of mannose encapsulated gold nanoparticles (m-AuNP) are reported. m-AuNP is well dispersed and very stable without aggregation in the media of broad ion strength and pH ranges.

Type 1 and F17-like Pili Promote the Establishment of the Uropathogenic E. coli Intestinal Reservoir
Urinary tract infections (UTI) affect over 150 million individuals worldwide every year. These infections are associated with significant morbidity and have a sizeable economic impact, with $5 billion being spent on UTI treatment in the USA annually ...

Chaperone/usher machinery [PDF]
Many virulence organelles of Gram-negative bacterial pathogens are assembled via the periplasmic chaperone/usher (CU) pathway. The assembly process is a complex task, involving secretion of organelle subunits via the two membranes and periplasm, subunit ...

Assembly of type 1 pili in Escherichia coli
An extensive random mutagenesis study on the function of nine residues in the subunit binding site of FimC was conducted to evaluate the mol. mechanisms of subunit binding by FimC and the contribution of chaperone surface residues. Five plasmid libraries
