Amino acids 22-180 constitute the expression domain of recombinant Escherichia coli F17a-A. The theoretical molecular weight of the F17a-A protein is 32.4 kDa. Expression of this F17a-A protein is conducted in e.coli. The N-terminal 6xHis-SUMO tag was smoothly integrated into the coding gene of F17a-A, which enables a simple process of detecting and purifying the F17a-A recombinant protein in the following steps.
The Escherichia coli F17 fimbrial protein (F17a-A) is a structural component of the F17 fimbriae, which are hair-like appendages on the surface of certain pathogenic E. coli strains. These fimbriae play a crucial role in the adhesion of bacteria to host cells, facilitating colonization and the establishment of infection. F17a-A is involved in the assembly and structural integrity of these appendages. The adhesion of E. coli expressing F17 fimbriae to host tissues is a key step in the pathogenesis of infections, particularly those affecting the intestines of animals. Understanding the structure and function of F17a-A can contribute to insights into bacterial virulence mechanisms and may inform the development of strategies to prevent or treat infections caused by F17-positive E. coli strains.There are currently no reviews for this product.
