The Pseudomonas aeruginosa flagellar cap protein, FliD, is responsible for mucin adhesion.

Infection and immunity - 1 Mar 1998

Abstract excerpt

Mucin-specific adhesion of Pseudomonas aeruginosa plays an important role in the initial colonization of this organism in the airways of cystic fibrosis patients. We report here that the flagellar cap protein, FliD, participates in this adhesion process. A polar chromosomal insertional mutation in the P. aeruginosa fliD gene made this organism nonadhesive to mucin in an in vitro mucin adhesion assay. The adhesive...
