The Crl protein activates cryptic genes for curli formation and fibronectin binding in Escherichia coli HB101.
TL;DR: The subunit protein of curli was highly homologous at its amino terminus to SEF‐17, the subunitprotein of thin, aggregative fimbriae of Salmonella enteritidis 27655 strain 3b, suggesting that these fibres form a novel class of surface organelles on enterobacteria.

Environmental regulation of curli production in Escherichia coli.
TL;DR: Investigation of the epitopes of both the fibronectin molecule and the curlin subunit protein involved in the binding of E. coli to tissue will give more insight into the initial colonization of host surfaces by bacteria.

TL;DR: It is proposed that the H. pylori gene product (termed Pfr) forms the basis for a second class of bacterial ferritins designed to store nonheme iron.

TL;DR: In this article, a new fibronectin binding protein from E. coli in the form of a curli pili was presented, which is a new recombinant hybrid-DNA-molecule comprising a nucleotide sequence from E coli coding for a protein or polypeptide having binding properties.

Molecular characterization of fibronectin binding proteins in bacteria
TL;DR: Methods for the analysis of bacterial binding to the extracellular matrix protein fibronectin will be presented and methods for cloning and mutagenesis of putative binding proteins to provide a strategy for the molecular analysis of fibronECTin binding are outlined.
