Method and gene for providing or enhancing nonspecific adhesive property and/or autoagglutinating property for microorganisms

摘要

A method for providing or enhancing a nonspecific adhesive property, an autoagglutinating property, or both properties in a microorganism is provided. The method comprises introducing a nucleic acid encoding autotransporter adhesin from a microorganism having a nonspecific adhesion property into a target microorganism.
