A polar organelle is a structure at a specialised region of the bacterial polar membrane that is associated with the flagellar apparatus. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] This flagellum-associated structure can easily be distinguished from the other membrane regions in ultrathin sections of embedded bacteria by electron microscopy when the cell membrane is ...
The engine is powered by proton-motive force, i.e., by the flow of protons (hydrogen ions) across the bacterial cell membrane due to a concentration gradient set up by the cell's metabolism (Vibrio species have two kinds of flagella, lateral and polar, and some are driven by a sodium ion pump rather than a proton pump [26]). The rotor ...
The engine is powered by proton motive force, i.e. by the flow of protons (hydrogen ions) across the bacterial cell membrane due to a concentration gradient set up by the cell's metabolism. (In species of the genus Vibrio, there are two kinds of flagella, lateral and polar, and some are driven by a sodium ion pump rather than a proton pump. [28])
The flagellum is rooted in the periplasm and is stabilized by interaction with periplasmic structural components, [17] [23] and is therefore another pathogenesis-related target for antimicrobial agents. During infection of a host, the cell of a bacterium is subject to many turbulent environmental conditions, which highlights the importance of ...
In solutions with NaCl concentrations of 0.6-1.5M, Marinobacter hydrocarbonoclasticus produce and move by the movement of “a single unsheathed polar flagellum.” [2] In solutions with NaCl concentrations <0.2 or >1.5, M. hydrocarbonoclasticus are unable to produce flagella, and are thereby unable to influence their movement through medium.

Bradyrhizobium species are Gram-negative bacilli (rod-shaped) with a single subpolar or polar flagellum.They are common soil-dwelling micro-organisms that can form symbiotic relationships with leguminous plant species where they fix nitrogen in exchange for carbohydrates from the plant.
Some species of this order are motile by a single polar flagellum; others are not motile. References This page was last edited on 9 May 2024, at ...
It is motile by using one polar flagellum. [2] References This page was last edited on 13 August ...
