FliH and FliI help FlhA bring strict order to flagellar protein export in Salmonella
The flagellar type III secretion system (fT3SS) switches substrate specificity from rod-hook-type to filament-type upon hook completion, terminating...

The lack of Tex44 causes severe subfertility with flagellar abnormalities in male mice
By analyzing a mouse Interspecific Recombinant Congenic Strain (IRCS), we previously identified a quantitative trait locus (QTL), called Mafq1 on...

BBOF1 is required for sperm motility and male fertility by stabilizing the flagellar axoneme in mice
The sperm flagellum is a specialized type of motile cilium composed of a typical “9 + 2” axonemal structure with peri-axonemal structures, such as...

Purification of the Transmembrane Polypeptide Channel Complex of the Salmonella Flagellar Type III Secretion System
Many motile bacteria employ the flagellar type III secretion system (fT3SS) to build the flagellum on the cell surface. The fT3SS consists of a...

High-Resolution Rotation Assay of the Bacterial Flagellar Motor Near Zero Loads Using a Mutant Having a Rod-Like Straight Hook
The bacterial flagellar motor is embedded within the cell envelop and rotates the long helical filament, which acts as a molecular screw to propel...
-
Purification and CryoEM Image Analysis of the Bacterial Flagellar Filament
The bacterial flagellum is a large assembly of about 30 different proteins and is divided into three parts: the filament that acts as a screw...
