CC -!- FUNCTION: Structural subunit of the major fimbriae. These long,
CC filamentous pili are attached to the cell surface; they mediate biofilm
CC formation, adhesion onto host cells and onto other bacteria that are
CC part of the oral microbiome (PubMed:9786913, PubMed:12593606,
CC PubMed:15165251, PubMed:17675496, PubMed:17526848, PubMed:20530728,
CC PubMed:27062925). They play an important role in the invasion of
CC periodontal tissues (PubMed:12593606). Fimbriae and their constituents
CC are major virulence factors. FimA proteins from different strains have
CC highly divergent sequences, and this has been used for classification
CC (PubMed:23809984). The sequence-based classification correlates with
CC pathogenicity (PubMed:17675496). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12593606,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:15165251, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17526848,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:17675496, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20530728,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:23809984, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27062925,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:9786913}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Fimbriae are composed of a major, structural subunit (FimA)
CC and the minor components FimC, FimD and FimE (PubMed:17675496,
CC PubMed:17526848). Head-to-tail oligomerization of FimA molecules
CC mediates assembly of the fimbrium stalk, while the minor components
CC probably form the fimbrium tip. Linear, head-to-tail oligomerization of
CC FimA is mediated by a conformation change, facilitating the insertion
CC of a C-terminal beta-strand into a groove in the N-terminal domain of
CC the following subunit (By similarity). The anchoring subunit FimB
CC limits fimbrium length and is important for solid fimbrium attachment
CC to the outer membrane. In its absence, the major fimbriae become very
CC long and are easily detached from the membrane (PubMed:27062925).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P59914, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17526848,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:17675496, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27062925}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Fimbrium {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15165251,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:17526848, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17675496,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:20530728, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9786913}. Cell outer
CC membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15165251}. Note=Synthesized as
CC palmitoylated precursor. The lipidated propeptide is removed during
CC processing to the mature protein. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15165251}.
CC -!- PTM: Synthesized as palmitoylated precursor (PubMed:15165251).
CC Efficient export to the outer membrane and integration into fimbriae
CC requires lipidation and subsequent proteolytic removal of the lipidated
CC propeptide (PubMed:8778568, PubMed:9786913, PubMed:15165251).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15165251, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8778568,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:9786913}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: FimA-deficient cells lack major fimbriae,
CC resulting in strongly decreased adherence to host cells
CC (PubMed:12593606, PubMed:17675496). Double mutants lacking both FimA
CC and Mfa1 lack major and minor fimbriae; they fail to adhere to host
CC cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12593606, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17675496}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: In some prokaryotes, a valine codon can be used as start
CC of translation. The Val-37 codon had been proposed to serve as start of
CC translation for FimA, but mutagenesis of Val-37 to Ala has no effect on
CC FimA biosynthesis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15165251}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: The name (major fimbrium subunit) does not indicate the
CC abundance of the protein, but is derived from the greater length of the
CC major fimbriae. In strain ATCC 33277 and strain ATCC BAA-1703 / FDC
CC 381, major fimbriae are 300 - 1600 nM in length and about 5 nm in
CC diameter. In contrast, minor fimbriae are only about 80 - 120 nm long.
CC This length difference is observed only in a small number of strains,
CC including strain ATCC 33277 and strain ATCC BAA-1703 / FDC 381, and is
CC due to a loss of function mutation in FimB, a protein that restricts
CC fimbrial length in other strains. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:27062925,
CC ECO:0000305|PubMed:20530728}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the bacteroidetes fimbrillin superfamily.
CC FimA/Mfa1 family. {ECO:0000305}.
