Lysine residue 117 of the FasG adhesin of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli is essential for binding of 987P fimbriae to sulfatide.

Infection and immunity - 1 Nov 1999

Choi B K, Schifferli D M

Abstract excerpt

The FasG subunit of the 987P fimbriae of enterotoxigenic strains of Escherichia coli was previously shown to mediate fimbrial binding to a glycoprotein and a sulfatide receptor on intestinal brush borders of piglets. Moreover, the 987P adhesin FasG is required for fimbrial expression, since fasG null mutants are nonfimbriated. In this study, fasG was modified by site-directed mutagenesis to study its sulfatide...
