Bacterial lateral flagella: an inducible flagella system
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2006Flagella are complex surface organelles that allow bacteria to move towards favourable environments and that contribute to the virulence of pathogenic bacteria through adhesion and biofilm formation on host surfaces. There are a few bacteria that possess functional dual flagella systems, such as Vibrio parahaemolyticus, some mesophilic Aeromonas spp ...

Spirochete Flagella and Motility [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2020 Spirochetes can be distinguished from other flagellated bacteria by their long, thin, spiral (or wavy) cell bodies and endoflagella that reside within the periplasmic space, designated as periplasmic flagella (PFs). Some members of the spirochetes are pathogenic, including the causative agents of syphilis, Lyme disease, swine dysentery, and ...

Functions of Bacterial Flagella
Critical Reviews in Microbiology, 1996Many bacterial species are motile by means of flagella. The structure and implantation of flagella seems related to the specific environments the cells live in. In some cases, the bacteria even adapt their flagellation pattern in response to the environmental conditions they encounter.

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2006
Flagellar gene networks are fascinating, owing to their complexity - they usually coordinate the expression of more than 40 genes - and particular wiring that elicits temporal expression coupled to organelle morphogenesis. Moreover, many of the lessons learned from flagellar regulation are generally applicable to type III secretion systems.

Gram-Negative Flagella Glycosylation [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2014 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 ...

Bacterial Flagella and Motility
Nature, 1948Flagella, and especially bacterial flagella, have been thoroughly investigated during the past decade. Before that they were rather taken for granted. This awakening of interest was largely due to the electron microscope referred to as the EM) which made them more real, and revealed new features, without solving their mysteries. Perhaps also, as Knaysi

The Quarterly Review of Biology, 1980
Most bacterial movement is the result of the action of a subcellular structure, the flagellar organelle. Bacterial flagella propel the cell by rotating, and this rotation is regulated in response to information transmitted by chemoreceptors on the surface of the cell. Rotation is driven by a motor anchored in the cell membrane.

Construction of bacterial flagella
Nature, 1975The flagella of Salmonella can adopt a number of distinct helical forms. This article discusses the design of a subunit which packs to give a helical filament. Polymorphism is explained by small changes in the geometry of the subunit.
