CsgI (YccT) Is a Novel Inhibitor of Curli Fimbriae Formation in Escherichia coli Preventing CsgA Polymerization and Curli Gene Expression
Curli fimbriae are amyloids—found in bacteria (Escherichia coli)—that are involved in solid-surface adhesion and bacterial aggregation during biofilm formation. The curli protein CsgA is coded by a csgBAC operon gene, and the transcription factor CsgD is essential to induce its curli protein express...
