“…Transcriptional regulators homologous to CpsS control biofilm formation in other bacteria; however, they act as activators. CsgD is a positive transcriptional regulator of cellulose production and curli fimbriae in Salmonella typhimurium and Escherichia coli (Brombacher et al, 2003;Gerstel and Romling, 2003). VpsT is a recently identified a positive regulator of VPS genes in V. cholerae (Casper-Lindley and Yildiz, 2004).…”

“…AgfD (CsgD) is a transcriptional regulator that initiates transcription in the agfBAC operon, which encodes the main structural proteins for fimbrial biosynthesis (Collinson et al, 1993(Collinson et al, , 1996Rö mling et al, 1998Rö mling et al, , 2000. agfD is also regulated by the transcriptional regulators OmpR, MlrA and CpxR-P (Gerstel and Rö mling, 2003;. s 38 not only directly regulates agfD, but also feeds into its activation via positive regulation of the transcriptional regulator mlrA, (Brown et al, 2001).…”

“…Tafi are known as curli because, in the absence of extracellular polysaccharides (EPSs), their morphology appears curled; however, when expressed with EPS, their morphology appears as a tangled amorphous matrix (White et al, 2003). Together, Tafi and EPS form the extracellular matrix that results in a colony morphotype that appears red, dry and rough (rdar) on Congo red agar (Romling et al, 2000;White et al, 2003), which is highly conserved in most Salmonella and E. coli strains (Arnqvist et al, 1992;Collinson et al, 1991Collinson et al, , 1992Doran et al, 1993;Gerstel & Romling, 2003;White et al, 2006;Zogaj et al, 2003). Tafi are essential for the formation of the extracellular matrix , which is involved in multicellular aggregation (Romling et al, 2000), pellicle formation (Collinson et al, 1993), biofilm formation (Austin et al, 1998;Gerstel & Romling, 2003;Prigent-Combaret et al, 2000;Vidal et al, 1998), environmental persistence , and adherence to plant tissues (Barak et al, 2005).…”

Tafi also have pathogenesis-related properties in that they accelerate amyloidosis in mice (Lundmark et al, 2005), bind fibronectin (Arnqvist et al, 1992;Collinson et al, 1993;Olsen et al, 2002), are proinflammatory (Bian et al, 2000(Bian et al, , 2001Persson et al, 2003;Tukel et al, 2005), and enhance adherence and invasion of eukaryotic cells (Dibb-Fuller et al, 1999;Kim & Kim, 2004;La Ragione et al, 2000;Sukupolvi et al, 1997).…”
