Abstract excerpt
The effect of CheY and fumarate on switching frequency and rotational bias of the bacterial flagellar motor was analyzed by computer-aided tracking of tethered Escherichia coli. Plots of cells overexpressing CheY in a gutted background showed a bell-shaped correlation curve of Switching frequency and bias centering at about 50% clockwise rotation. Gutted cells (i.e., with cheA to cheZ deleted) with a low CheY...
