Abstract excerpt
The bacterial flagellum is a predominantly cell-external super-macromolecular construction whose structural components are exported by a flagellum-specific export apparatus. One of the export apparatus proteins, FlhB, regulates the substrate specificity of the entire apparatus; i.e. it has a role in the ordered export of the two main groups of flagellar structural proteins such that the cell-proximal components...
