Flow-induced bending of flagella restricts Pseudomonas aeruginosa surface departure [PDF]
mBioShear force associated with flow can bend, twist, or stretch cellular appendages. Bacterial appendages such as flagella can rotate and generate forces. However, it is unclear how environmental and cell-generated forces interact as bacteria associate with

Nutritional and technological quality of the durum wheat
Italian Journal of Agronomy, 2006 Durum wheat quality is a complex system that combines yield characteristics, cultivation conditions and certification requirements. In this review, the technological and nutritional aspects of grain quality were evaluated in relation to the influence of ...

A PAS Domain-Containing Regulator Controls Flagella-Flagella Interactions in Campylobacter jejuni [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 The bipolar flagella of the foodborne bacterial pathogen Campylobacter jejuni confermotility, which is essential for virulence. The flagella of C. jejuni are posttranslationallymodified, but how this process is controlled is not well understood.

The polar and lateral flagella from Plesiomonas shigelloides are glycosylated with legionaminic acid
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 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

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.

, 2007 To analyze the function of ciliary polycystic kidney disease 2 (PKD2) and its relationship to intraflagellar transport (IFT), we cloned the gene encoding Chlamydomonas reinhardtii PKD2 (CrPKD2), a protein with the characteristics of PKD2 family members ...

Contractile Mechanisms in Flagella
Biophysical Journal, 1971 The elastic theory of flexural waves in thin rods accurately predicts the velocity of flagellar bending waves over a wide range of viscosities. This shows that flagella behave as a purely mechanical system for the transmission of these waves. An evaluation of the total bending moment reveals that this moment occurs in phase over the entire length of a ...

Annual Review of Microbiology, 1977 Flagella are responsible for bacterial motility and chemotaxis. They are subcellular organdies that originate in the membrane of the cell and extend 15-20 µm from the cell surface. The bacterial flagellar system has been studied from a variety of points of view, including as a model for the regulation of organelle formation and morphogenesis, as a ...

Chlamydomonas Basal Bodies as Flagella Organizing Centers
Cells, 2018 During ciliogenesis, centrioles convert to membrane-docked basal bodies, which initiate the formation of cilia/flagella and template the nine doublet microtubules of the flagellar axoneme.

σ28-dependent small RNA regulation of flagella biosynthesis
eLife, 2023 Flagella are important for bacterial motility as well as for pathogenesis. Synthesis of these structures is energy intensive and, while extensive transcriptional regulation has been described, little is known about the posttranscriptional regulation ...
