Anchoring subunit of the major fimbriae. Regulates fimbrial length (PubMed:20530728). These filamentous pili are attached to the cell surface; they mediate biofilm formation, adhesion onto host cells and onto other bacteria that are part of the oral microbiome. Fimbriae of P.gingivalis are major virulence factors.

Belongs to the bacteroidetes fimbrillin superfamily. FimB/Mfa2 family.
