The Production of Curli Amyloid Fibers Is Deeply Integrated into the Biology of Escherichia coli

Curli amyloid fibers are the major protein component of the extracellular matrix produced by Enterobacteriaceae during biofilm formation. Curli are required for proper biofilm development and environmental persistence by Escherichia coli. Here, we present a complete and vetted genetic analysis of fu...
