Structural highlights
FunctionECPD_ECOL6 Part of the ecpRABCDE operon, which encodes the E.coli common pilus (ECP). ECP is found in both commensal and pathogenic strains and plays a dual role in early-stage biofilm development and host cell recognition. Tip pilus adhesin, which is required for assembly of EcpA into fibers (By similarity).ECPA_ECOL6 Part of the ecpRABCDE operon, which encodes the E.coli common pilus (ECP). ECP is found in both commensal and pathogenic strains and plays a dual role in early-stage biofilm development and host cell recognition. Major subunit of the fimbria.[1] References
