Roles of fimB and fimE in site-specific DNA inversion associated with phase variation of type 1 fimbriae in Escherichia coli.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Sept 1991

McClain M S, Blomfield I C, Eisenstein B I

Abstract excerpt

Evidence obtained with an improved in vivo assay of fimbrial phase variation in Escherichia coli supported a revised understanding of the roles of fimB and fimE in the site-specific DNA rearrangement with which they are associated. A previously proposed model argued that fimB and fimE play antagonistic, unidirectional roles in regulating the orientation of the invertible DNA element located immediately upstream...
