The multifunctional protein YdiV represses P fimbria-mediated adherence in uropathogenic Escherichia coli.
YdiV, a degenerate EAL domain protein, represses motility by interacting with FlhD to abolish FlhDC interaction with DNA. Here, we demonstrate that deletion of ydiV dysregulates coordinate control of motility and adherence by increasing adherence of Escherichia coli CFT073 to a bladder epithelial cell line by specifically increasing production of P fimbriae. Interestingly, only one of the two P...
متن کاملAggregative adherence fimbria II, a second fimbrial antigen mediating aggregative adherence in enteroaggregative Escherichia coli.
Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) has been implicated as an agent of pediatric diarrhea in the developing world. We have shown previously that EAEC adheres to HEp-2 cells by virtue of a plasmid-encoded fimbrial adhesin designated aggregative adherence fimbria I (AAF/I), the genes for which have been cloned and sequenced. However, not all EAEC strains express AAF/I. Using TnphoA mutagene...
متن کاملA-Type proanthocyanidin trimers from cranberry that inhibit adherence of uropathogenic P-fimbriated Escherichia coli.
Three proanthocyanidin trimers possessing A-type interflavanoid linkages, epicatechin-(4beta-->6)-epicatechin-(4beta-->8, 2beta-->O-->7)-epicatechin (4), epicatechin-(4beta-->8, 2beta-->O-->7)-epicatechin-(4beta-->8)-epicatechin (5), and epicatechin-(4beta-->8)-epicatechin-(4beta-->8, 2beta-->O-->7)-epicatechin (6), were isolated from the ripe fruits of Vaccinium macrocarpon (cranberry) and pre...
متن کاملMolecular mechanism of P pilus termination in uropathogenic Escherichia coli.
P pili are important adhesive fibres that are assembled by the conserved chaperone-usher pathway. During pilus assembly, the subunits are incorporated into the growing fibre by the donor-strand exchange mechanism, whereby the beta-strand of the chaperone, which complements the incomplete immunoglobulin fold of each subunit, is displaced by the amino-terminal extension of an incoming subunit in ...
متن کاملsRNA-Mediated Regulation of P-Fimbriae Phase Variation in Uropathogenic Escherichia coli
Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) are capable of occupying physiologically distinct intracellular and extracellular niches within the urinary tract. This feat requires the timely regulation of gene expression and small RNAs (sRNAs) are known to mediate such rapid adjustments in response to changing environmental cues. This study aimed to uncover sRNA-mediated gene regulation in the UPEC str...
