Requirements for swarming ability by lateral flagella on an agar surface in marine Vibrio cells

The marine bacterium Vibrio alginolyticus and the food poisoning bacterium V. parahaemolyticus possess two types of flagella in one cell: proton-driven lateral flagella (Laf) extending from the periphery of the cell body, and sodium ion-driven polar flagella (Pof) extending from a cell pole. For swimming in seawater th...

Structural characterization of a pseudaminic acid-modified lateral flagellar filament from Vibrio alginolyticus

It is demonstrated that the Vibrio lateral flagellar filament is extensively modified by pseudaminic acid and that Maf is required for filament formation, the first structural characterization of a glycosylated Vibrio lateral flagellar filament and a close link between flagellin glycosylation and motility organelle ass...

Detection of Ring Structure and Its Flexibility in Periplasmic Region of FliL, Bacterial Flagellar Stator-Associate Protein, in Marine Vibrio.

Analysis of oligomeric organization and structural plasticity of the periplasmic domain of polar-flagellum FliL from Vibrio alginolyticus and compared with detergent-solubilized full-length pofFliL suggests that such plasticity enables FliL to act as an adaptable scaffold for stator engagement and mechanosensitive remo...
