Conserved FimH mutations in the global Escherichia coli ST131 multi-drug resistant lineage weaken interdomain interactions and alter adhesin function

The binding of the type 1 fimbrial adhesin FimH to mannosylated receptors is allosterically regulated to enhance the fitness of uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) during urinary tract infection (UTI). Mutations in the two FimH domains (pilin and lectin) located outside the mannose binding pocket...
