Mechanism and kinetics of a sodium-driven bacterial flagellar motor
The bacterial flagellar motor is a large rotary molecular machine that propels swimming bacteria, powered by a transmembrane electrochemical potential difference. It consists of an ∼50-nm rotor and up to ∼10 independent stators anchored to the cell wall. We measured torque-speed relationships of sin...
