Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) does not have pili or fimbriae. Instead, it relies on other mechanisms, such as surface proteins and biofilm formation, to adhere to surfaces and evade the immune system. These adaptations contribute to its virulence and ability to cause infections.
