Cellular component - Fimbrium
- DefinitionA fimbrium or pilus is a hair-like, non-flagellar, polymeric filamentous appendage that extend from the bacterial or archaeal cell surface, such as type 1 pili, P-pili, type IV pili or curli. Pili perform a variety of functions, including surface adhesion, motility, cell-cell interactions, biofilm formation, conjugation, DNA uptake, and twitching motility.
