Biogenesis and adhesion of type 1 and P pili
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 2014Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) cause urinary tract infections (UTIs) in approximately 50% of women. These bacteria use type 1 and P pili for host recognition and attachment. These pili are assembled by the chaperone-usher pathway of pilus biogenesis.The review examines the biogenesis and adhesion of the UPEC type 1 and P pili.

Light-microscopic Visualization of F and Type 1 Pili
Microbiology, 1984Methods for the direct visualization of F and type 1 pili of Escherichia coli in the light microscope are described. The method for visualizing F pili is based on the specific adsorption of fluorescent dye-labelled RNA phages to F pili. The best results were obtained with MS2 phages labelled with rhodamine B.

A key role for type 1 pili in enterobacterial communicability
Molecular Microbiology, 1992SummaryUp to 80% of faecal Escherichia coil strains are able to produce type 1 pili. These filamentous bacterial surface organelles, which mediate mannose‐sensitive attachment to mammalian epithelial cells, are also conserved throughout the Enterobacteriaceae. As a potential explanation for their prevalence among intestinal isolates of enteric bacteria,

Structural and functional insights into the assembly of type 1 pili from Escherichia coli
Microbes and Infection, 2006Type 1 pili are filamentous protein complexes that are anchored to the outer membrane of uropathogenic Escherichia coli and mediate bacterial adhesion to the surface of urinary epithelium cells. We review here the current status of structural and functional studies on the assembly of type 1 pili.
