Complete structure of the bacterial flagellar hook reveals extensive set of stabilizing interactions
The bacterial flagellar hook is made up of many copies of the protein FlgE. Here, the authors report the full structure of the hook from Campylobacter jejuni and show that its overall structure is different from that of the previously published filament.
