Mycoplasma pneumoniae cytoskeletal protein HMW2 and the architecture of the terminal organelle.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Nov 2009

Bose Stephanie R, Balish Mitchell F, Krause Duncan C

Abstract excerpt

The terminal organelle of Mycoplasma pneumoniae mediates cytadherence and gliding motility and functions in cell division. The defining feature of this complex membrane-bound cell extension is an electron-dense core of two segmented rods oriented longitudinally and enlarging to form a bulb at the distal end. While the components of the core have not been comprehensively identified, previous evidence suggested...
