abstract：:Expression of fimA, the structural gene for type 1 fimbriae of Escherichia coli, is phase variable. Significant homologies were identified between the recombinases which control fimbrial phase variation, FimB and FimE, and the integrase class of site-specific recombinases. Normal expression of fimA was shown to requir...
