Abstract excerpt

Polar flagellum-defective mutants (Pof- Laf-) have been isolated from a lateral flagella-defective mutant (Pof+ Laf-). Among these Pof- Laf- mutants, polar-filamentless mutants, which have the hook structure but not the filament, were identified by electron microscopy. Their hooks were covered wi...
