faeH

Gene
faeH
Protein
K88 minor fimbrial subunit FaeH
Organism
Escherichia coli
Length
265 amino acids
Function
K88 minor fimbrial subunit, plays an essential role in the biogenesis of the K88 fimbriae. Fimbriae (also called pili), are polar filaments radiating from the surface of the bacterium to a length of 0.5-1.5 micrometers and numbering 100-300 per cell. They enable bacteria to colonize the epithelium of specific host organs.
Similarity
Belongs to the fimbrial K88 protein family.
Mass
28.108 kDa
