Abstract excerpt
Four motor proteins, MotX, MotY, PomA, and PomB, have been identified as constituents of the Na(+)-driven flagellum of Vibrio species. In this study, the complete motX gene was cloned from Vibrio alginolyticus and shown to complement three mot mutations, motX94, motX115, and motX119, as well as a V. parahaemolyticus motX mutant. The motX94 mutant contains a frameshift at Val86 of MotX, while the motX115 and...
