Structural highlights
FunctionPAPG2_ECOLX Tip adhesin component of type P pili that plays a critical role in kidney infection through targeted interaction with the globoseries glycolipids containing the Gal-alpha(1-4)-Gal disaccharide present on uroepithelial cells (PubMed:11440716, PubMed:31361021). In turn, transcriptionally regulates host gene expression in kidney cells, leading to inflammatory pathway activation and renal tissue damage. Acts thereby as key determinant of invasive uropathogenic E.coli (UPEC), which cause pyelonephritis and urinary-source bacteremia (By similarity).[UniProtKB:A0A0H2VAQ6][1] [2] Evolutionary ConservationCheck, as determined by ConSurfDB.
