One major function of the fimbriae is to suppress the immune booster present in the body of the host by adhering the bacterial cells to the mucous membrane that ...

Fimbriae are a pivotal factor to adhere to host cell surface, extracellular matrix proteins, and coaggregation of oral bacteria and to invade into host cells [ ...

Flagella and some pili are used for locomotion, fimbriae help the cell stick to a surface, and sex pili are used for DNA exchange. Most prokaryotic cells have a ...

Fimbriae are proteinaceous filamentous projections on the bacterial cell surface that function as adhesins to assist binding of the bacteria to a specific ...

The fimbriae connect the ovaries to the opening of the fallopian tubes, creating a funnel-shaped space for the ovum to travel through.

25 окт. 2022 г. · Your fimbriae allow your ovaries and your fallopian tubes to work in sync. Your ovaries produce an egg, and your fimbriae usher that egg into ...
