Abstract: FlaK is an NtrC-type activator of the AAA+ ATPase subfamily of σ54-dependent promoters of flagellar genes. FlhG, a MinD-like ATPase, negatively regulates the polar flagellar number by collaborating with FlhF, an FtsY-like GTPase. ABSTRACT Vibrio… read more here.

Abstract: It is generally recognized that flagellar genes are commonly responsible for the flagella-driven bacterial motility. Thus, finding nonflagellated bacteria partially or fully lost flagellar genes is not a surprise. ABSTRACT Loss of flagellar genes causes… read more here.
