Introduction
The 23kDa two-domain periplasmic chaperone FIMC from E.coli is vital for the assembly of type-1 pili, which are filamentous, very oligomeric protein complexes anchored to the outer bacterial membrane that mediate adhesion of pathogenic E. coli strains to host cell surfaces and persist in macrophages.
Description
FIMC E.Coli Recombinant fused with a?21 amino acid His tag at N-terminus produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing?226 amino acids (37-241 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 25kDa. The FIMC is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
Escherichia Coli.
