Yad fimbriae are currently viewed as versatile bacterial adhesins able to significantly mediate host or plant-pathogen recognition and contribute to the persistence of Escherichia coli in both the environment and within hosts. To date, however, the underlying adhesion process of Yad fimbriae on surfaces defined by controlled coating chemistries has not been evaluated on the relevant molecular scale. In this work, the interaction forces operational between Yad fimbriae expressed by genetically modified E. coli and self-assem
