Evolutionary Analysis Points to Divergent Physiological Roles of Type 1 Fimbriae in Salmonella and Escherichia coli

Salmonella and Escherichia coli mannose-binding type 1 fimbriae exhibit highly similar receptor specificities, morphologies, and mechanisms of assembly but are nonorthologous in nature, i.e., not closely related evolutionarily. Their operons differ in chromosomal location, gene arrangement, and regu...
