The complex flagellar torque generator of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
-
PA1460-PA1461 (called motAB in this paper) mutants swim at near wild-type speed in liquid but are severely impaired in semisolid agar and on swarm plates; chemotaxis is normal; loss of both MotA homologues abolishes motility.
"Effects of motor mutations on swarming: MotA, MotB, and MotY are necessary to power movement on surfaces."
Evidence for two flagellar stators and their role in the motility of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
-
The motCD deletion cannot swarm on 0.5% agar or firmer; motCD in trans restores swarming to the double stator mutant.
"However, under higher agar concentrations, the Δ motCD mutant is unable to swarm."
Cyclic di-GMP-mediated repression of swarming motility by Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA14 requires the MotAB stator.
-
High c-di-GMP alters GFP-MotD localization; the authors propose MotAB displaces MotCD from the motor.
"We propose that when c-di-GMP level is high, the MotAB stator can displace MotCD from the motor, thereby affecting motor function."
