STRUCTURAL AND BIOCHEMICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF THE BACTERIAL FLAGELLAR MOTOR HOOK COMPLEX AND THE MS:C-RING INTERFACE
The bacterial flagellar motor (BFM) is a highly complex and specialized nano-machine that powers the rotation of the flagellar filament. The flagellar filaments serve as propellers to push the cell forward and make movement in liquid and semi-solid surfaces possible. The BFM and associated hook and …

Geometry and Hydrodynamics of Swimming with a Bundle of Bacterial Flagella
… of life starting from unicellular organisms. Flagellar propulsion is the most common form of locomotion amongst unicellular organisms. On the one hand, eukaryotic organisms have flexible flagella which they undulate in a remarkable variety of patterns - from the whip-like motion of a …

The little engine that could: Characterization of noncanonical components in the speed-variable flagellar motor of the symbiotic soil bacterium Sinorhizobium meliloti
The bacterial flagellum is a fascinating corkscrew-shaped macromolecular rotary machine used primarily to propel bacterial cells through their environment via the conversion of chemical potential energy into rotational power and thrust. Flagella are the principal targets of complex chemotaxis …
