Hypermotility in Clostridium perfringens strain SM101 is due to spontaneous mutations in genes linked to cell division.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Jul 2014

Abstract excerpt

Clostridium perfringens is a Gram-positive anaerobic pathogen of humans and animals. Although they lack flagella, C. perfringens bacteria can still migrate across surfaces using a type of gliding motility that involves the formation of filaments of bacteria lined up in an end-to-end conformation....
