Load-dependent adaptation near zero load in the bacterial flagellar motor

Kavli Affiliate: Richard Berry | Summary:The bacterial flagellar motor is an ion-powered transmembrane protein complex which drives swimming in many bacterial species. The motor consists of a cytoplasmic ‘rotor’ ring and a number of ‘stator’ units, which are bound to the cell wall of the bacterium. Recently, it has been shown that the number of […]
