The interaction of Escherichia coli O157 :H7 and Salmonella Typhimurium flagella with host cell membranes and cytoskeletal components [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Bacterial flagella have many established roles beyond swimming motility. Despite clear evidence of flagella-dependent adherence, the specificity of the ligands and mechanisms of binding are still debated. In this study, the molecular basis of Escherichia

Oscillatory movement of a dynein-microtubule complex crosslinked with DNA origami

open access: yeseLife, 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.

Genetically Engineered Flagella Form Collagen-like Ordered Structures for Inducing Stem Cell Differentiation

open access: yesiScience, 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.

open access: yesPLoS 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 ...

Flagellar membranes are rich in raft-forming phospholipids

open access: yesBiology 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.

Pseudaminic acid on Campylobacter jejuni flagella modulates dendritic cell IL-10 expression via Siglec-10 receptor: a novel flagellin-host interaction. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
INTRODUCTION: Campylobacter jejuni is a leading cause of bacterial gastroenteritis worldwide. At present the identity of host-pathogen interactions that promote successful bacterial colonisation remain ill defined.

The BBSome restricts entry of tagged carbonic anhydrase 6 into the cis-flagellum of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
The two flagella of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii are of the same size and structure but display functional differences, which are critical for flagellar steering movements.

The Ancient and Evolved Mouse Sperm-Associated Antigen 6 Genes Have Different Biologic Functions In Vivo

open access: yesCells, 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.

Motility of Different Gastric Helicobacter spp.

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Helicobacter spp., including the well-known human gastric pathogen H. pylori, can cause gastric diseases in humans and other mammals. They are Gram-negative bacteria that colonize the gastric epithelium and use their multiple flagella to move across the ...

CEP164C regulates flagellum length in stable flagella [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Cilia and flagella are required for cell motility and sensing the external environment and can vary in both length and stability. Stable flagella maintain their length without shortening and lengthening and are proposed to “lock” at the end of growth ...
