Rab23 is a flagellar protein in Trypanosoma brucei

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2011
Background Rab small GTPases are important mediators of membrane transport, and orthologues frequently retain similar locations and functions, even between highly divergent taxa.

Computational Study of Micropropulsion Mechanism in Water Modeled on Flagellum with Projecting Mastigonemes

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2009
The application of dynamics in organisms to the field of engineering is very instructive. From this point of view, we aimed at examining the micropropulsion mechanism modeled on aquatic microorganisms, and proposed a micropropulsion mechanism modeled on ...

Dependency relationships between IFT-dependent flagellum elongation and cell morphogenesis in Leishmania [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2018
Flagella have multiple functions that are associated with different axonemal structures. Motile flagella typically have a 9 + 2 arrangement of microtubules, whereas sensory flagella normally have a 9 + 0 arrangement.

Propulsion Mechanism of Flexible Microbead Swimmers in the Low Reynolds Number Regime

open access: yesMicromachines, 2020
A propulsion mechanism for a flexible microswimmer constructed from superparamagnetic microbeads with different diameters and subjected to an oscillating field was studied experimentally and theoretically herein. Various types of artificial swimmers with

Oligomerization of the FliF Domains Suggests a Coordinated Assembly of the Bacterial Flagellum MS Ring

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The bacterial flagellum is a complex, self-assembling macromolecular machine that powers bacterial motility. It plays diverse roles in bacterial virulence, including aiding in colonization and dissemination during infection.

The GTPase IFT27 is involved in both anterograde and retrograde intraflagellar transport

open access: yeseLife, 2014
The construction of cilia and flagella depends on intraflagellar transport (IFT), the bidirectional movement of two protein complexes (IFT-A and IFT-B) driven by specific kinesin and dynein motors.

The Campylobacter jejuni CiaC virulence protein is secreted from the flagellum and delivered to the cytosol of host cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2012
Campylobacter jejuni is a leading cause of bacterial gastroenteritis worldwide. Acute C. jejuni-mediated disease (campylobacteriosis) involves C. jejuni invasion of host epithelial cells using a set of virulence proteins known as the Campylobacter ...

The Drosophila orthologue of the primary ciliary dyskinesia-associated gene, DNAAF3, is required for axonemal dynein assembly

open access: yesBiology Open, 2021
Ciliary motility is powered by a suite of highly conserved axoneme-specific dynein motor complexes. In humans, the impairment of these motors through mutation results in the disease primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD).
