Abstract

Cryoelectron Microscopy Salmonella typhimurium - chemistry Treponema - chemistry Salmonella typhimurium - ultrastructure Treponema - ultrastructure Flagella - ultrastructure Salmonella typhimurium - genetics Models, Biological Flagella - chemistry Bacterial Proteins - chemistry Bacterial Proteins - genetics Models, Molecular
Electron tomography of frozen-hydrated bacteria, combined with single particle averaging, has produced stunning images of the intact bacterial flagellum, revealing features of the rotor, stator and export apparatus.
