Motility Assay: Twitching Motility [PDF]
, 2014 Twitching motility is a mode of solid surface translocation that occurs under humid conditions on semisolid or solid surfaces, is dependent on the presence of retractile type IV pili and is independent of the presence of a flagellum. Surface translocation via twitching motility is powered by the extension and retraction of type IV pili and can manifest

The Motility of Mollicutes [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2003 Recent experiments show that the conformation of filament proteins play a role in the motility and morphology of many different types of bacteria. Conformational changes in the protein subunits may produce forces to drive propulsion and cell division. Here we present a molecular mechanism by which these forces can drive cell motion.

Optical trapping reveals propulsion forces, power generation and motility efficiency of the unicellular parasites Trypanosoma brucei brucei [PDF]
, 2014 Unicellular parasites have developed sophisticated swimming mechanisms to survive in a wide range of environments. Cell motility of African trypanosomes, parasites responsible for fatal illness in humans and animals, is crucial both in the insect vector ...

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1917 To the Editor: —In the Current Comment on "The Function of the Prostate" (The Journal, Feb. 17, 1917, p. 553), it is stated that "it has been noted that the spermatozoa are practically motionless while in the seminiferous tubules of the testis, but become actively motile in the vas deferens, or when mixed with prostatic secretion." The statement that

Impact of Microscopic Motility on the Swimming Behavior of Parasites : Straighter Trypanosomes are More Directional [PDF]
, 2011 Microorganisms, particularly parasites, have developed sophisticated swimming mechanisms to cope with a varied range of environments. African Trypanosomes, causative agents of fatal illness in humans and animals, use an insect vector (the Tsetse fly) to ...

Regulation of the leading edge motility by PI (4,5)P2-dependent lipid microdomains [PDF]
, 2005 The lipid second messenger PI(4,5)P2 modulates actin dynamics, and its local accumulation at plasmalemmal microdomains (rafts) might mediate regulation of protrusive motility.

A small-molecule inhibitor of T. gondii motility induces the posttranslational modification of myosin light chain-1 and inhibits myosin motor activity [PDF]
, 2010 Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate intracellular parasite that enters cells by a process of active penetration. Host cell penetration and parasite motility are driven by a myosin motor complex consisting of four known proteins: TgMyoA, an unconventional ...
