Transcript
Bacterial attachment. A. The bacterial cell has both adhesive pili and another protein adhesin protruding from its surface. The pili are binding to a receptor
present in material covering the cytoplasmic membrane. B. The pili have pulled the organism into closer contact allowing the second adhesin to bind its
receptor, which extends from the cytoplasmic membrane through the surface coating.
