CC -!- FUNCTION: Structural subunit of the major fimbriae (PubMed:27062925).
CC These long, filamentous pili are attached to the cell surface; they
CC mediate biofilm formation, adhesion onto host cells and onto other
CC bacteria that are part of the oral microbiome. They play an important
CC role in the invasion of periodontal tissues. Fimbriae and their
CC constituents are major virulence factors. FimA proteins from different
CC strains have highly divergent sequences, and this has been used for
CC classification. The sequence-based classification correlates with
CC pathogenicity. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:B2RH54,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:27062925}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Fimbriae are composed of a major, structural subunit (FimA)
CC and the minor components FimC, FimD and FimE (By similarity). Head-to-
CC tail oligomerization of FimA molecules mediates assembly of the
CC fimbrium stalk, while the minor components probably form the fimbrium
CC tip (Probable). Linear, head-to-tail oligomerization of FimA is
CC mediated by a conformation change, facilitating the insertion of a C-
CC terminal beta-strand into a groove in the N-terminal domain of the
CC following subunit (PubMed:27062925). The anchoring subunit FimB limits
CC fimbrium length and is important for solid fimbrium attachment to the
CC outer membrane. In its absence, the major fimbriae become very long and
CC are easily detached from the membrane (PubMed:27062925).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:B2RH54, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27062925,
CC ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Fimbrium {ECO:0000269|PubMed:27062925}. Cell
CC outer membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:B2RH54}. Note=Synthesized as
CC palmitoylated precursor. The lipidated propeptide is removed during
CC processing to the mature protein. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:B2RH54}.
CC -!- PTM: Synthesized as palmitoylated precursor. Efficient export to the
CC outer membrane and integration into fimbriae requires lipidation and
CC subsequent proteolytic removal of the lipidated propeptide.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:B2RH54}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Strain ATCC BAA-308 / W83 seems to lack fimbriae,
CC probably due to very low expression of the fimA gene.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:23809984}.
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 381, major fimbriae are
CC 300 - 1600 nM in length and about 5 nm in diameter. In contrast, minor
CC fimbriae are only about 80 - 120 nm long. This length difference is
CC observed only in a small number of strains, including strain ATCC 33277
CC and strain 381, and is due to a loss of function mutation in FimB, a
CC protein that restricts fimbrial length in other strains. {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the bacteroidetes fimbrillin superfamily.
CC FimA/Mfa1 family. {ECO:0000305}.
