A polar bundle of flagella can drive bacterial swimming by pushing, pulling, or coiling around the cell body

Bacteria swim in sequences of straight runs that are interrupted by turning events. They drive their swimming locomotion with the help of rotating helical flagella. Depending on the number of flagella and their arrangement across the cell body, different run-and-turn patterns can be observed. Here,...
