FliW is not a prerequisite for flagellin recognition by FlhA-C. (a) Coomassie-stained SDS-PAGE of a pulldown assay employing GST-tagged FlhA-C. Flagellin alone does not interacts with FlhA-C (lane 2). FliS alone is able to recruit flagellin to FlhA-C (lane 3), while FliW alone is not (lane 4). Lanes 1, 5, 6 and 7 represent the input of purified GST-FlhA-C, Flagellin, FliS and FliW, respectively. (b) Reconstitution of the FliS/flagellin/FliW/FlhA-C complex on size exclusion chromatography shows an apparent heterotetramer. Arrows indicate the protein size standard in kDa. The inset shows a Coomassie-stained SDS-PAGE of the peak fraction.
