FimH family of type 1 fimbrial adhesins: functional heterogeneity due to minor sequence variations among fimH genes.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Feb 1994

Sokurenko E V, Courtney H S, Ohman D E, Klemm P, Hasty D L

Abstract excerpt

We recently reported that the type 1-fimbriated Escherichia coli strains CSH-50 and HB101(pPKL4), both K-12 derivatives, have different patterns of adhesion to yeast mannan, human plasma fibronectin, and fibronectin derivatives, suggesting functional heterogeneity of type 1 fimbriae. In this report, we provide evidence that this functional heterogeneity is due to variations in the fimH genes. We also investigated...
