Reproduction extracts a cost in resources that organisms are then unable to utilize to deal with a multitude of environmental stressors. In the nematode C. elegans, development of the germline shortens the lifespan of the ...
Kinetic Characterization of Salmonella FliK-FlhB Interactions Demonstrates Complexity of the Type III Secretion Substrate-Specificity Switch

Morris, Daniel (AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2010)

The bacterial flagellum is a complex macromolecular machine consisting of more than 20 000 proteins, most of which must be exported from the cell via a dedicated Type III secretion apparatus. At a defined point in flagellar ...
