| papA | PapA protein; Fimbriae (also called pili), polar filaments radiating from the surface of the bacterium to a length of 0.5-1.5 micrometers and numbering 100-300 per cell, enable bacteria to colonize the epithelium of specific host organs; Belongs to the fimbrial protein family. (199 aa) | ||||
| tonB | TonB protein; Interacts with outer membrane receptor proteins that carry out high-affinity binding and energy dependent uptake into the periplasmic space of specific substrates. It could act to transduce energy from the cytoplasmic membrane to specific energy-requiring processes in the outer membrane, resulting in the release into the periplasm of ligands bound by these outer membrane proteins. Belongs to the TonB family. (255 aa) | ||||
| fliC | Flagellin; Flagellin is the subunit protein which polymerizes to form the filaments of bacterial flagella. (595 aa) | ||||
| TcpC | Hypothetical protein; Virulence factor that suppresses host Toll-like receptor (TLR)-mediated cytokine production upon infection, thereby increasing bacterial burden in the urinary tract and promoting renal tissue damage. Acts as a NAD(+) hydrolase (NADase) by catalyzing cleavage of NAD(+) into ADP-D-ribose (ADPR) and nicotinamide. Also able to hydrolyze NADP(+), but not other NAD(+)-related molecules. (307 aa) | ||||
