The cryo-EM structure of the bacterial flagellum cap complex suggests a molecular mechanism for filament elongation
The bacterial flagellum is a remarkable molecular motor, whose primary function in bacteria is to facilitate motility through the rotation of a filament protruding from the bacterial cell. A cap complex, consisting of an oligomer of the protein FliD, is localized at the tip of the flagellum, and is...
