The disease-causing strains of bacteria possess fimbriae or pili. Pili increases the bacterial ability to adhere to tissues and colonise by multiplying rapidly.

Gram-negative bacteria produce a diverse array of pili that mediate microbe–microbe and host–pathogen interactions important in the development of disease.

Fimbriae and pili, both are appendages on the cell wall of the bacteria. These thin protein tubes originate from the cytoplasmic membrane of several bacteria.

Pili or pilus which is the singular for the former term can be defined as hair-like appendages that are attached to the cells of bacteria. The pili are composed ...
