IV型皮利（T4 P）是在属于β-、γ-和δ-变形菌门、蓝细菌门和厚壁菌门的多种细菌的表面上发现的毛发状附属物。它们构成了一种有效的装置，用于一种特定类型的细菌表面运动，称为抽搐，并参与其他几种细菌的活动和功能，包括表面粘附，定植，生物膜形成，遗传物质摄取和毒力。T4 P的合成和调控涉及数十个基因，其中大多数基因通常被称为fim基因。尽管T4 P具有多种功能，并且它们在动物病原菌的致病性中的作用已得到充分证实，但相对较少关注T4 P在植物病原菌中的作用。只是在最近几年的研究已经开始审查与更多的关注这些表面附属物的植物细菌病原体的毒力的相关性。本文综述了T4 P基因的遗传机制及其在植物病原细菌与寄主互作中的作用。
Type IV pili (T4P) are hair-like appendages found on the surface of a wide range of bacteria belonging to the β-, γ-, and δ-Proteobacteria, Cyanobacteria and Firmicutes. They constitute an efficient device for a particular type of bacterial surface motility, named twitching, and are involved in several other bacterial activities and functions, including surface adherence, colonization, biofilm formation, genetic material uptake and virulence. Tens of genes are involved in T4P synthesis and regulation, with the majority of them being generally named pil/fim genes. Despite the multiple functionality of T4P and their well-established role in pathogenicity of animal pathogenic bacteria, relatively little attention has been given to the role of T4P in plant pathogenic bacteria. Only in recent years studies have begun to examine with more attention the relevance of these surface appendages for virulence of plant bacterial pathogens. The aim of this review is to summarize the current knowledge about T4P genetic machinery and its role in the interactions between phytopathogenic bacteria and their plant hosts.
