Abstract excerpt
The poles of each Caulobacter crescentus cell undergo morphological development as a function of the cell cycle. A single flagellum assembled at one pole during the asymmetric cell division is later ejected and replaced by a newly synthesized stalk when the motile swarmer progeny differentiates into a sessile stalked cell. The removal of the flagellum during the swarmer-to-stalked cell transition coincides with...
