The bacterial flagellum and the related virulence-associated injectisome system of pathogenic bacteria utilize a type III secretion system (T3SS) to export substrate proteins …
The bacterial flagellum is a self-assembling nanomachine. The external flagellar filament, several times longer than a bacterial cell body, is made of a few tens of thousands subunits …

Assembly of the bacterial flagellar filament is strictly sequential; the junction proteins, FlgK and FlgL, are assembled at the distal end of the hook prior to the FliD cap, which supports …
The bacterial flagellum is a supramolecular motility machine. Flagellar assembly begins with the basal body, followed by the hook and finally the filament. A carboxyl-terminal …

Bacteria use a type III protein export apparatus for construction of the flagellum, which consists of the basal body, the hook, and the filament. FlhA forms a homo-nonamer through …
FlgN chaperone acts as a bodyguard to protect its cognate substrates, FlgK and FlgL, from proteolysis in the cytoplasm. Docking of the FlgN–FlgK complex with the FliI ATPase of the …

Multi-drug resistant Vibrio vulnificus is a Gram-negative bacillus responsible for diseases, such as: sepsis, septicemia, gastroenteritis, and fatal necrotizing fasciitis in humans. The …
The bacterial flagellum is a motile organelle composed of thousands of protein subunits. The filamentous part that extends from the cell membrane is called the axial structure and …
