Genes involved in the biogenesis and function of type-4 fimbriae in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Gene - 11 Jun 1997

Alm R A, Mattick J S

Abstract excerpt

Type-4 fimbriae are filamentous polar organelles which are found in a wide variety of pathogenic bacteria. Their biogenesis and function is proving to be extremely complex, involving the expression and coordinate regulation of a large number of genes. Type-4 fimbriae mediate attachment to host epithelial tissues and a form of surface translocation called twitching motility. In Pseudomonas aeruginosa they also...
