FIMC E.Coli Recombinant fused with a 21 amino acid His tag at N-terminus produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 226 amino acids (37-241 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 25kDa. The FIMC is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
The 23kDa two-domain periplasmic chaperone FIMC from E.coli is vital for the assembly of type-1 pili, which are filamentous, very oligomeric protein complexes anchored to the outer bacterial membrane that mediate adhesion of pathogenic E. coli strains to host cell surfaces and persist in macrophages.
