F17-aG lectin domain from Escherichia coli in complex with N-acetyl-glucosamine
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 12864853
Function
[F17AG_ECOLX] Essential fimbrial adhesion factor that mediates binding to N-acetylglucosamine-containing receptors in the host intestinal microvilli, leading to colonization of the intestinal tissue, and diarrhea or septicemia. Also confers adhesiveness to laminin and basement membranes.
