Discovery of a proteolytic flagellin family in diverse bacterial phyla that assembles enzymatically active flagella
Bacterial flagella are cell locomotion and occasional adhesion organelles composed primarily of the polymeric protein flagellin, but to date have not been associated with any enzymatic function. Here, we report the bioinformatics-driven discovery of a class of enzymatic flagellins that assemble to f...
