Bacterial Motility: From Propulsion to Collective Behavior

open access: yes, 2007
This work explores bacterial motility from the mechanisms of propulsion of an individual cell to the complex behavior of collective motility. The shear modulus of bacterial flagella was measured by stretching isolated flagella with an optical trap and by

Dual Regulatory Role Exerted by Cyclic Dimeric GMP To Control FsnR-Mediated Bacterial Swimming

open access: yesmBio, 2022
Bacterial motility has great medical and ecological significance because of its essential role in bacterial survival and pathogenesis. Cyclic dimeric GMP (c-di-GMP), a second messenger in bacteria, is the predominant regulator of flagellar synthesis and ...

Roles for motility in bacterial–host interactions [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, 1997
The ability to move in a directed manner may confer distinct advantages upon host‐adapted prokaryotes. Potential benefits of motility include increased efficiency of nutrient acquisition, avoidance of toxic substances, the ability to translocate to preferred hosts and access optimal colonization sites within them, and dispersal in the environment ...

Flagellated bacterial motility in polymer solutions [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2014
Significance The way microorganisms swim in concentrated polymer solutions has important biomedical implications, i.e., how pathogens invade the mucosal lining of mammal guts. Physicists are also fascinated by self-propulsion in such complex non-Newtonian fluids.

Mechanism of bacterial motility

open access: yesNippon Saikingaku Zasshi, 2019
Bacteria, life living at microscale, can spread only by thermal fluctuation. However, the ability of directional movement, such as swimming by rotating flagella, gliding over surfaces via mobile cell-surface adhesins, and actin-dependent movement, could be useful for thriving through searching more favorable environments, and such motility is known to ...
