Analysis of a Spontaneous Non-Motile and Avirulent Mutant Shows That FliM Is Required for Full Endoflagella Assembly in Leptospira interrogans. [PDF]
Pathogenic Leptospira strains are responsible for leptospirosis, a worldwide emerging zoonotic disease. These spirochetes are unique amongst bacteria because of their corkscrew-like cell morphology and their periplasmic flagella.

The γ-proteobacteria are a group of diverse bacteria including pathogenic Escherichia, Salmonella, Vibrio, and Pseudomonas species. The majority swim in liquids with polar, sodium-driven flagella and swarm on surfaces with lateral, non-chemotactic ...

The polar and lateral flagella from Plesiomonas shigelloides are glycosylated with legionaminic acid
Plesiomonas shigelloides is the unique member of the Enterobacteriaceae family able to produce polar flagella when grow in liquid medium and lateral flagella when grown in solid or semisolid media. In this study on P. shigelloides 302-73 strain, we found

MODIFIED STAINING FOR OBSERVATION OF FLAGELLA IN Bacillus amyloliquefaciens BY OPTICAL MICROSCOPY
Background: Bacillus amyloliquefaciens is a plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium and produces several secondary metabolites with antimicrobial activity. One of its most important morphological characteristics is the presence of flagella.

Gram-Negative Flagella Glycosylation [PDF]
Protein glycosylation had been considered as an eccentricity of a few bacteria. However, through advances in analytical methods and genome sequencing, it is now established that bacteria possess both N-linked and O-linked glycosylation pathways. Both glycosylation pathways can modify multiple proteins, flagellins from Archaea and Eubacteria being one ...

Synthesis of Bacterial Flagella: Chromosomal Synchrony and Flagella Synthesis [PDF]
Synchronous cultures of Bacillus subtilis 168 M were obtained from light-density spores germinated at 46 C and grown at 37 C. This procedure synchronizes both cell division and chromosome replication. The chromosome synchrony was demonstrated by using transformation to measure changes in marker frequency during the ...

Summary: Bacteria use flagella, the protein nanofibers on their surface, as a molecular machine to swim. Flagella are polymerized from monomers, flagellins, which can display a peptide by genetic means.

A mathematical model of flagellar gene regulation and construction in Salmonella enterica.
Millions of people worldwide develop foodborne illnesses caused by Salmonella enterica (S. enterica) every year. The pathogenesis of S. enterica depends on flagella, which are appendages that the bacteria use to move through the environment ...

A brief introduction to the model microswimmer {\it Chlamydomonas reinhardtii} [PDF]
The unicellular biflagellate green alga {\it Chlamydomonas reinhardtii} has been an important model system in biology for decades, and in recent years it has started to attract growing attention also within the biophysics community.

Flagellar membranes are rich in raft-forming phospholipids
The observation that the membranes of flagella are enriched in sterols and sphingolipids has led to the hypothesis that flagella might be enriched in raft-forming lipids.
