摘要：
Several fimbriae have been implicated as potentially important in EPEC adhesion and pathogenesis. EPEC strain E2348/69 produced only bundle forming pill and type 1 fimbriae, and did not produce other accesory adhesins identified in EPEC strain B171. Cloning and mutagenesis of these EPEC firn genes indicated that type 1 pill had no affect on levels or patterns of adhesion to cultured human cells. (C) 1997 Academic Press Limited.
