A mutant hook-associated protein (HAP3) facilitates torsionally induced transformations of the flagellar filament of Escherichia coli.

Journal of molecular biology - 29 Apr 1994

Fahrner K A, Block S M, Krishnaswamy S, Parkinson J S, Berg H C

Abstract excerpt

Two mutants with defects in hook-associated protein 3 (HAP3) were isolated that exhibit impaired swimming only when they interact with a solid surface or a semisolid matrix. Motility and chemotaxis were normal in liquid media, even in media containing viscous agents, but cells failed to swarm in...
