Individual fimbria recognize and bind to specific receptors to promote adhesion to the host cell surface [2, 12] . Type 1 fimbriae are highly expressed on the bacterial surface, allowing large quantities of bacteria to adhere via the FimH-Mannose interaction (Fig. 3 ). For example, the R64 plasmid, which encodes the pilV gene and engages in the adhesion of type 4 fimbriae, recognizes the di-saccharide moiety of bacterial surface polysaccharides (the core oligosaccharide or O-antigen unit of lipopolysaccharides, a unique structure of the bacterial cell surface) and determines the recipient bacteria of the conjugal transfer [26, 27] . Salmonella and assortative bacteria contain various adhesion factors, including several kinds of fimbriae, which contribute to bacterial virulence; however, analyses of their specific receptor moieties and functions are not yet complete [13, 15] . ./cache/cord-355239-fc52dn3v.txt ./txt/cord-355239-fc52dn3v.txt
