Uncovering the Role of the <i>scs</i> Pilus Within the Complex Surface Architecture of <i>Stenotrophomonas maltophilia</i>

2026-03-13

Abstract excerpt

Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is an emerging multidrug-resistant pathogen that encodes numerous surface structures mediating attachment, biofilm formation, motility, and virulence. How individual adhesive systems function within this complex and potentially redundant network remains unclear. Here, we investigated the scs locus, a conserved chaperone-usher pilus system, to define its contribution to surface-associa...
