Abstract excerpt

The length of the flagellar hook is regulated; it is 55 +/- 6 nm long in Salmonella. Five genes involved in hook-length regulation are fliK, flhB, fliG, fliM and fliN. The last four genes encode structural components of the protein export apparatus in the flagellar base, whereas FliK is soluble and secreted during flagellar assembly. The role of FliK, however, remains ambiguous. We constructed two kinds of FliK...
