Structural and Functional Characterization of Type IV Pilus-AssociatedProteins PilV, Pil94, and Pil96 of Aeromonas hydrophila: Potential Role inHuman Pathogenesis
The restricted occurrence of pilV, pil94, and pil96 in virulent strains and their predicted affinity for human β-integrins underscore their importance in host colonization and pathogenesis, identifying them as promising molecular targets for diagnostic or therapeutic development.
