Role of chemotaxis, cyclic-di-GMP and type 1 fimbriae in Escherichia coli surface attachment

Bacteria are commonly found in their natural environments not as single cells, but as part of communities called biofilms. For biofilm formation, bacteria typically have to attach to a surface. This attachment is also important for the establishment of infections. In order to interact with the surfa...
