Functional relationship among the gene clusters encoding F7(1), F7(2), F9, and F11 fimbriae of human uropathogenic Escherichia coli.
The P fimbrial gene clusters encoding the serologically different F7(1), F7(2), F9, and F11 fimbriae were compared functionally. The results show that these gene clusters are closely related.
