Activation mechanism of the bacterial flagellar dual-fuel protein export engine

Activation mechanism of the bacterial flagellar dual-fuel protein export engine

Bacteria employ the flagellar type III secretion system (fT3SS) to construct flagellum, which acts as a supramolecular motility machine. The fT3SS of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is composed of a transmembrane export gate complex and a cytoplasmic ATPase ring complex. The transmembrane ex...
