Motility of Spirochetes

2017
Spirochetes are bacteria distinguished by an undulate or helical cell body and intracellular flagellar called periplasmic flagella or endoflagella. Spirochetes translate by rotating the cell body. In this chapter, we show a method for simultaneous measurement of the cell body rotation and swimming speed in individual spirochete cells.

Genome structure of spirochetes

Research in Microbiology, 1992
The genome structures of several pathogenic spirochetes have recently been determined. The genomes of Borrelia species consist of a linear chromosome of approximately one million base pairs (Mb) and various linear and circular plasmids. Analysis of restriction fragment length polymorphisms and 16S ribosomal RNA sequence data indicate the division of ...

Ticks and spirochetes

Acta tropica, 1979
The concept is expressed that Borrelia developed as symbionts of ticks (especially Argasidae) but act as parasites in mammals and birds ... borrelial reservoirs and amplifiers following bites by infected ticks. Certain tick borreliae may multiply in lice but one Borrelia has evolved into a n independent species (B.

Spirochete chemotaxis, motility, and the structure of the spirochetal periplasmic flagella

Research in Microbiology, 1992
Spirochetes have a unique motility system that is characterized by flagellar filaments contained within the outer membrane sheath. Direct evidence using video microscopy has recently been obtained which indicates that these periplasmic flagella (PF) rotate in several spirochetal species. This rotation generates thrust.

Spirochetal Infection of the Canaliculus

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1961
The inflammation of the canaliculus, although a rare disease, constitutes a clinical entity in the form of suppurative canaliculitis also known as blennorrhea of the canaliculus; the organisms found to be responsible have been staphylococci, gonococci, pneumococci, Bacillus pyocyaneus, diplobacillus, sarcinae, and Micrococcus tetragenus (Duke-Elder ...

A theory for the locomotion of spirochetes

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1972
Abstract A hydrodynamic theory for the locomotion of spirochetes is presented. The theory is based on a possible arrangement of internal fibrils such that self rotation about a local body axis is possible. This self rotation is responsible for cancelling the torque produced by the traveling helical waves of the body.

Extrachromosomal elements of spirochetes

Research in Microbiology, 1992
The spirochetes include some important pathogenic bacteria, Treponema, Borrelia and Leptospira. The pathogeneses of these spirochetes are very diverse. In an attempt to learn more about the virulence factors among the spirochetes, their genetic organization and capacity have been studied. Structural analysis of the genome in Borrelia has shown that the
