Enterobacterial fimbriae.
Many different species of the family Enterobacteriaceae have been shown to possess fimbrial appendages which emerge from the bacterial cell as straight, rigid organelles distinct from flagella (14). The role of fimbriae (synonym: pili) as adhesins in both enterotoxigenic and uropathogenic isolates of Escherichia coli has been demnonstrated, and thus the identification of such appendages as viru...

متن کاملPorphyromonas gingivalis fimbriae
Marginal periodontitis is not a homogeneous disease but is rather influenced by an intricate set of host susceptibility differences as well as diversities in virulence among the harbored organisms. It is likely that clonal heterogeneity of subpopulations with both high and low levels of pathogenicity exists among organisms harbored by individuals with negligible, slight, or even severe periodon...
متن کاملPili (fimbriae) of Branhameh Species
PURPOSE: Pili (fimbriae) have frequently been found to be involved in the attachment of bacteria to mucosal epithelial cells, an important initial step in the disease process. The purpose of this study was to determine if BrunhameZZa catarrhalis expresses type 4 pili. MATERIALSANDMETHODS: Piliated B. caturrhalis phenotypic characteristics of colony morphology, agar corrosion, twitching motility...
متن کاملCodon contexts in enterobacterial and coliphage genes.
This investigation of the codon context of enterobacteria, plasmid, and phage protein genes was based on a search for correlations between the presence of one base type at codon position III and the presence of another base type at some other position in adjacent codons. Enterobacterial genes were compared with eukaryotic sequences for codon context effects. In enterobacterial genes, base usage...
