Abstract excerpt
Tethered-cell and capillary assays indicated that L-methionine is required by Cellulomonas gelida for its normal cell motility pattern and chemotaxis and that S-adenosylmethionine is involved in sugar chemotaxis by this cellulolytic bacterium. In addition, in vivo methylation assays showed that several proteins were methylated in the absence of protein synthesis. The incorporated methyl groups were alkali...
