Adherence and autoaggregation phenotypes of a<i>Burkholderia cenocepacia</i>cable pilus mutant

1 Nov 2003

Abstract excerpt

Cable pili are unique peritrichous adherence organelles expressed by certain strains of the opportunistic human pathogen Burkholderia cenocepacia. Cable pili have been proposed to facilitate binding to human epithelial cells and mucin, and may play a role in the ability of B. cenocepacia to colonise the respiratory tract of compromised hosts. In this study, a genetic approach was undertaken to assess the role of...
