Rotational dynamics of a superhelix towed in a Stokes fluid

, 2007
Motivated by the intriguing motility of spirochetes (helically-shaped bacteria that screw through viscous fluids due to the action of internal periplasmic flagella), we examine the fundamental fluid dynamics of superhelices translating and rotating in a ...

Native cellular architecture of Treponema denticola revealed by cryo-electron tomography [PDF]

, 2009
Using cryo-electron tomography, we are developing a refined description of native cellular structures in the pathogenic spirochete Treponema denticola. Tightly organized bundles of periplasmic flagella were readily observed in intact plunge-frozen cells.
