Flagellar polymorphism-dependent bacterial swimming motility in a structured environment

Most motile bacteria use supramolecular motility machinery called bacterial flagellum, which converts the chemical energy gained from ion flux into mechanical rotation. Bacterial cells sense their external environment through a two-component regulatory system consisting of a histidine kinase and res...
