Helical flow of surface protein required for bacterial gliding motility.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 2 Jul 2013

Abstract excerpt

Cells of Flavobacterium johnsoniae and of many other members of the phylum Bacteroidetes exhibit rapid gliding motility over surfaces by a unique mechanism. These cells do not have flagella or pili; instead, they rely on a novel motility apparatus composed of Gld and Spr proteins. SprB, a 669-kDa...
