Twitching Motility Contributes to the Role of Pili in Corneal Infection Caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Twitching motility is a form of surface-associated bacterial movement mediated by type IV pili of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Others have shown that pilT and pilU mutants, which are piliated but defective in twitching motility, display reduced cytotoxic capacity towards epithelial cells in vitro. Althou...
