Title Unlocking the switching of a nanomotor
Date 2010-03-15
Description Many pathogens use flagella as a means of locomotion. Pairs of Fli M residues were mutated and tested in the presence of repellent (forcing the motor to tumble) and differences in crosslinking were observed. Of those species, some (e.coli, salmonella etc.) can spin their flagella in 2 different directions. This allows them to avoid toxins and find food.
