A Multiprotein Complex Anchors Adhesive Holdfast at the Outer Membrane of Caulobacter crescentus

Adhesion allows microbes to colonize surfaces and is the first stage in biofilm formation. Stable attachment of the freshwater alphaproteobacterium Caulobacter crescentus to surfaces requires an adhesive polysaccharide called holdfast, which is synthesized at a specific cell pole and ultimately foun...
