Abstract excerpt
The MS ring of the flagellar basal body of Salmonella is an integral membrane structure consisting of about 26 subunits of a 61-kDa protein, FliF. Out of many nonflagellate fliF mutants tested, three gave rise to intergenic suppressors in flagellar region II. The pseudorevertants swarmed, though poorly; this partial recovery of motile function was shown to be due to partial recovery of export function and...
