Type I fimbriae subunit fimA enhances Escherichia coli biofilm formation but affects L-threonine carbon distribution

The biofilm (BF) provides favorable growth conditions to cells, which has been exploited in the field of industrial biotechnology. Based on our previous research works on type I fimbriae for the biosynthesis of L-threonine (LT) in Escherichia coli, in this study, a fimA-overexpressing strain was eng...
