A triangular loop of domain D1 of FlgE is essential for hook assembly but not for the mechanical function.

Biochemical and biophysical research communications - 8 Jan 2018

Abstract excerpt

The bacterial flagellar hook is a short, curved tubular structure made of FlgE. The hook connects the basal body as a rotary motor and the filament as a helical propeller and functions as a universal joint to smoothly transmit torque produced by the motor to the filament. Salmonella FlgE consists of D0, Dc, D1 and D2 domains. Axial interactions between a triangular loop of domain D1 (D1-loop) and domain D2 are...
