Roles of FliK and FlhB in determination of flagellar hook length in Salmonella typhimurium.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Sept 1994

Hirano T, Yamaguchi S, Oosawa K, Aizawa S

Abstract excerpt

The length of flagellar hooks isolated from wild-type and mutant cells with various hook lengths were measured on electron micrographs. The length of the wild-type hook showed a narrow distribution with a peak (+/- standard deviation) at 55.0 +/- 5.9 nm, whereas fliK mutants (so-called polyhook mutants) showed a broad distribution of hook lengths ranging from 40 to 900 nm, strongly indicating that FliK is...
