asymmetrical rotation of the bundles during translation does not depend upon the chemotaxis signal transduction system When not translating, they rotate in the same direction, and the cells flex. The results indicate that asymmetrical rotation of the flagellar bundles of spirochetes does not depend

Top Highlights

  • asymmetrical rotation of the bundles during translation does not depend upon the chemotaxis signal transduction system
  • When not translating, they rotate in the same direction, and the cells flex.
  • The results indicate that asymmetrical rotation of the flagellar bundles of spirochetes does not depend upon the chemotaxis system but rather upon differences between the two flagellar bundles
  • relatively short PFs cause the ends of the cell to form hook or spiral shaped ends
  • PFs are associated with the bent-shaped ends of the cell.
