Biophysical and structural characterisation of functional bacterial amyloid secretion systems

2020-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Amyloids are characterised by their innate capacity to aggregate into insoluble fibrils, which are commonly recognised for their cytotoxicity and association to neurodegenerative diseases. Their unique physicochemical properties are exploited by bacteria for various functional roles, including the formation of extracellular matrix that is linked to biofilm construction and antimicrobial resistance. The curli fimbr...
