Abstract excerpt

Proteus mirabilis is an important uropathogen that can cause complicated urinary tract infections (UTI). It produces several types of fimbriae, including mannose-resistant Proteus-like (MR/P) fimbriae and P. mirabilis fimbriae (PMF). Previously, we determined that these fimbriae affect the ability of P. mirabilis to colonize the urinary tract. The objective of this study was to analyse the effect of the...
