Abstract excerpt
The expression of flagellin in Salmonella typhimurium is coupled to the assembly of complete flagella. Mutations which disrupt this coupling define a gene, flgM, which represses the expression of the flagellin genes in strains with mutations in the basal body, switch, or hook flagellar gene (K. L. Gillen and K. T. Hughes, J. Bacteriol. 173:2301-2310, 1991). Complementation studies demonstrated that the flgM gene...
