Flagellar filament structure and cell motility of Salmonella typhimurium mutants lacking part of...

Examines the flagellar filament structure and cell motility of Salmonella typhimurium mutants lacking a part of the outer domain of flagellin. Isolation of mutants which can swim in the presence of antifilament antibodies; Morphology of flagellins isolated from the mutant types; Deletions in the flagellin structure; Role of the flagellin in cell motility.
