The Periplasmic Domain of the Ion-Conducting Stator of Bacterial Flagella Regulates Force Generation
The bacterial flagellar stator is a unique ion-conducting membrane protein complex composed of two kinds of proteins, the A subunit and the B subunit. The stator couples the ion-motive force across the membrane into rotational force. The stator becomes active only when it is incorporated into the fl...
