Abstract: We have previously reported clinical data to suggest that colonization factor I (CFA/I) fimbriae of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) can bind to Lewis a (Lea), a glycan epitope ubiquitous in the small intestinal mucosa of… read more here.

Abstract: ABSTRACT Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium genome encodes 13 fimbrial operons. Most of the fimbriae encoded by these operons are not produced under laboratory conditions but are likely to be synthesized in vivo. We used an… read more here.

DOI: 10.1128/msystems.00115-22
Abstract: Fimbriae of the CU assembly pathway represent important organelles that mediate Salmonella’s interactions with host tissues and abiotic surfaces. Our analyses provide a comprehensive overview of the diversity of CU fimbriae in Salmonella spp., highlighting… read more here.
