|
what are the two main parts to the rotary motor |
-stator |
|
what is the rotor made up of |
rod and rings
|
|
what is the stator made up of |
mot proteins |
|
what interacts with the PMF
|
the MS and C rings |
|
what direction does the flagella turn to move forward
|
CCW |

|
regarding chemotaxis, how do cells sense attractant?
|
receptors on CM and phosphorelay system |
|
how does the phosphorelay system aid in chemotaxis
|
signals are relayed to flagellar motor |
|
how many cilia does a eukaryotic cell have
|
tons |
|
what makes up the structure of euk. flagella
|
microtubule doublets |
|
how are flagella built in euks?
|
from the bottom |
|
what special feature does a eukaryotic flagellum have that a bacterial cell does not |
plasma membrane surrounding flagellum |
|
what holds the doublets together? |
dymein |
|
what does dymein do |
binds to atp and causes a conformational change that makes the flagella bend in a whiplike motion |
|
what are the main structures of bacterial flagellum
|
basal body, hook, filament |
|
what are the main structures of eukaryotic flagellum
|
microtubules and plasma membrane |

200nm |
|
how big are archael flag |
less than 10nm |
|
how are bact. flag. assembled |
from the top |
|

PMF |
|
what powers euk and arch flag |
ATP |
|
what kind of motion does bact. flag have |
rotary |
|
what kind of motion does arch flag have |
slower rotary |
|
what are the two types of nonflagellar motility |
twitching and gliding |
|
what are three characteristics of twitching motility
|
-extend and retract to inch along -not very fast |
|
what are three characteristics of gliding motility |
-smooth translocation -has evolved many times |
|
what is the proposed mechanism of gliding motility
|
movement via adhesion of outer surface proteins |
|
what is gliding motility powered by |
PMF |
