Torque-speed relationships of Na+-driven chimeric flagellar motors in Escherichia coli.

The bacterial flagellar motor is a rotary motor in the cell envelope of bacteria that couples ion flow across the cytoplasmic membrane to torque generation by independent stators anchored to the cell wall. The recent observation of stepwise rotation of a Na(+)-driven chimeric motor in Escherichia co...
