Journal ArticleDOI
The Rotary Motor of Bacterial Flagella
TL;DR: Flagellated bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, swim by rotating thin helical filaments, each driven at its base by a reversible rotary motor, powered by an ion flux.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toward intelligent molecular machines: directed motions of biological and artificial molecules and assemblies.
Kazushi Kinbara,Takuzo Aida +1 more
TL;DR: In the last two decades, considerable progress has been made in the field of molecular biology, which has enabled a molecular-level understanding of a number of interesting biological events, and the discovery of a family of moving proteins and their assemblies has attracted particular attention.
Journal ArticleDOI
Real-Time Imaging of Fluorescent Flagellar Filaments
TL;DR: A simple procedure for fluorescently labeling cells and filaments that allows recording their motion in real time with an inexpensive video camera and an ordinary fluorescence microscope with mercury-arc or strobed laser illumination is found.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fluid Mechanics of Planktonic Microorganisms
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the fluid physics governing the locomotion and feeding of individual planktonic microorganisms (≤ 1 mm) and provide a review of the recent advances in this area.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bacterial flagellar motor
Yoshiyuki Sowa,Richard M. Berry +1 more
TL;DR: This review outlines what has been learned about the structure and function of the bacterial flagellar motor using a combination of genetics, single-molecule and biophysical techniques, with a focus on recent results and single-Molecule techniques.
