The pili help the bacteria latch onto a target cell, then bundle together into ropelike filaments that bind a mass of bacteria together at the initial site of infection.

LifeAct is a 17 amino acid peptide that binds to actin filaments.

Recently, MinC and MinD have been shown to form alternating copolymeric filaments that bind and decorate membrane (following the linear pattern in a protofilament of -MinC2-MinD2) (FiGhosal(Ghosal et al, 2014).
