In addition, production of type 1 fimbriae was also impaired in these strains.
2
This effect was reversible and abolished by pre-incubation of fimbriae with anti-CfaE antibody.
3
These novel findings suggest that there are two forms of type 1 MS fimbriae.
4
There was no support for a relationship between type 1 fimbriae and renal scarring.
5
Type 1 fimbriae are rod-shaped surface appendages found in most E. coli and Salmonella isolates.
1
The frequency of fimbria-associated adhesins among respiratory pathogens has not been studied in detail.
2
The alteration of CA, hippocampus-amygdala transition area, and fimbria still requires further comparison between the two patient groups.
3
The type b strain 770235 attached via fimbriae but also expressed a subcapsular adhesin that was detected in a capsule- and fimbria-defective mutant.
4
Conjugation may represent an important mechanism by which type 3 fimbria genes are transferred among the Enterobacteriaceae that cause device-related infections in nosocomial settings.
5
The function of FimC is to provide a surrogate donor strand before delivery of each subunit to the FimD usher and the growing fimbria.

Background: Tip-localized adhesive proteins of bacterialfimbriae from diverse pathogens confer protection in animal models, but efficacy in humans has not been reported.
