DNA-templated assembly of the bacterial flagellar motor's cytoplasmic ring
- Abstract:
-
The bacterial flagellar motor is one of the most complex protein machines found in nature and how it self-assembles and produces force are very much open questions. In this thesis, I study the constituent parts of the motor in vitro, with the focus being primarily on FliG, a protein which helps to form the motor’s cytoplasmic ring. The experimental approach employs a DNA scaffold to direct the in vitro formation of the FliG ring, with the aim of determining both the number of proteins in t...
