Review
Genetic organization and biogenesis of adhesive fimbriae of Escherichia coli
Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek.
1988.
Abstract
The genetic organization of the determinants of type 1, K88ab, K99 fimbriae and P(pap)pili of Escherichia coli is presented. The functions of the various gene products are described and a model for the process of fimbriae biogenesis is presented and discussed.
