Synthesis of Bacterial Flagella: Chromosomal Synchrony and Flagella Synthesis [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1969 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 ...

Epithelial uptake of flagella initiates proinflammatory signaling. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The airway epithelium serves multiple roles in the defense of the lung. Not only does it act as a physical barrier, it acts as a distal extension of the innate immune system.

MODIFIED STAINING FOR OBSERVATION OF FLAGELLA IN Bacillus amyloliquefaciens BY OPTICAL MICROSCOPY
Tropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems, 2021 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.

Analysis of a Spontaneous Non-Motile and Avirulent Mutant Shows That FliM Is Required for Full Endoflagella Assembly in Leptospira interrogans. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 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.

iScience, 2019 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.
PLoS Computational Biology, 2020 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 ...

Oscillatory movement of a dynein-microtubule complex crosslinked with DNA origami
eLife, 2022 Bending of cilia and flagella occurs when axonemal dynein molecules on one side of the axoneme produce force and move toward the microtubule (MT) minus end.

Flagellar membranes are rich in raft-forming phospholipids
Biology Open, 2015 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.

Cells, 2022 Sperm-associated antigen 6 (SPAG6) is the mammalian orthologue of Chlamydomonas PF16, an axonemal central pair protein involved in flagellar motility. In mice, two Spag6 genes have been identified.
