Listeria monocytogenes flagella are used for motility, not as adhesins, to increase host cell invasion.

Infection and immunity - 1 Dec 2006

O'Neil Heather S, Marquis Hélène

Abstract excerpt

Flagellar structures contribute to the virulence of multiple gastrointestinal pathogens either as the effectors of motility, as adhesins, or as a secretion apparatus for virulence factors. Listeria monocytogenes is a food-borne, gram-positive pathogen that uses flagella to increase the efficiency of epithelial cell invasion (A. Bigot, H. Pagniez, E. Botton, C. Frehel, I. Dubail, C. Jacquet, A. Charbit, and C....
