and hitherto they have been regarded as ‘‘flagella or motor-organs. Motility of bacteria is thought to be due to activity of these threads, either by themselves or twisted into a tail.
Their study, published in Microbiological Research, reveals that bacteria can evolve by losing their flagella, the structures responsible for movement. The study was led by Prof. Wang Junfeng from ...
Early on in the research, the scientists discovered that it was the bacterial flagella – part of the cell that aids in movement – that enables the bacteria to invade cancer cells. So they ...
