CC   -!- FUNCTION: Fimbriae (also called pili) are polar filaments radiating
CC       from the surface of the bacterium to a length of 0.5-1.5 micrometers
CC       and numbering 100-300 per cell. They enable bacteria to colonize the
CC       epithelium of specific host organs. Flexible pili possess
CC       hemagglutinating function.
CC   -!- SUBUNIT: Homomer.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Fimbrium.
CC   -!- MISCELLANEOUS: A.hydrophila possesses two distinctive pilus types:
CC       'straight' pili appears as brittle, rod-like filaments, whereas
CC       'flexible' pili are supple and curvilinear.
