fimC type 1 fimbriae periplasmic chaperone [Escherichia coli str. K-12 substr. MG1655] - Gene

Summary

Official Symbol: fimC
Official Full Name: type 1 fimbriae periplasmic chaperone
Primary source: ECOCYC:EG10310
Locus tag: b4316
See related: ASAP:ABE-0014149
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: PROVISIONAL
Organism: Escherichia coli str. K-12 substr. MG1655 (strain: K-12, substrain: MG1655)
Lineage: Bacteria; Pseudomonadota; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia
Also known as: ECK4307; pilB
Summary: FimC has Ig-like domains: pfam PF00345 aligns to N-terminal residues 37-157, and pfam PF02753 aligns to C-terminal residues 161-237. [More information is available at EcoGene: EG10310]. FimC is a member of the periplasmic chaperone family which functions in the chaperone-usher pathway and is indispensable in the biogenesis of the type 1 pilus fiber of Escherichia coli .
