Abstract:
:Type 1 fimbrial phase-locked mutants of uropathogenic Escherichia coli cystitis isolate F11 were used to assess the role of the invertible element during urinary tract infection. Compared to the wild type, the phase-locked off mutant was attenuated, and constitutive production of type 1 fimbriae by the phase-locked on mutant did not provide a competitive advantage.
