In particular, genes for the P fimbriae adhesion cluster [pap operon (70.5%; 43/61)], Dr family of adhesins (4.9%; 3/61) and type I fimbriae [fim (100%; 61/61)], which are necessary for uroepithelia cell adhesion and invasion, and, thus, for causing urinary tract infection (Mulvey, 2002), were frequently found. This evidence concerns the gene ZMYM2 and urinary tract infection.
