Summary
One of 25 FimA homologs in EcoGene. [More information is available at EcoGene: EG10314]. FimG is a minor component of the type 1 fimbriae in Escherichia coli Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis indicated that FimG has a molecular weight of 17.0 kDa and exists in a 1:100 ratio with the major fimbrial subunit, FimA . [More information is available at EcoCyc: EG10314].

GeneRIFs: Gene References Into Functions

What's a GeneRIF?
  1. Data suggest that disulfide bonds can alter mechanical stability of proteins in different ways depending on properties of system. Disulfide-bonded E coli FimG (minor component of type 1 fimbriae) undergoes a 30% increase in its mechanical stability compared with its reduced counterpart. Unfolding force of human titan I91 domain exhibits decrease of 15% relative to the wild-type form.
    Title: The influence of disulfide bonds on the mechanical stability of proteins is context dependent.
  2. The complex between the pilus subunit FimG and the donor strand peptide of the subunit FimF shows an extrapolated dissociation half-life of 3 x 10(9) years.
