Figure 3. Flagellar sub‐complexes in P. aeruginosa .

Figure 3

  • A–C
    Slices through electron cryo‐tomograms showing fully assembled motors without the hook and filament. The dashed yellow circles indicate the IM sub‐complex.
  • D
    Schematic representation of the P. aeruginosa motors lacking the hook and filament shown in (A–C).
  • E–G
    Slices through electron cryo‐tomograms showing fully assembled motors with the hook and lacking the filament.
  • H
    Schematic representation of the motors with the hook shown in (E–G).
  • I–K
    Slices through electron cryo‐tomograms of intact P. aeruginosa ΔflgI cells showing the presence of the inner‐membrane sub‐complex with the rod.
  • L
    Schematic representation of the inner‐membrane sub‐complex with the rod shown in (I‐K).
  • M–O
    Slices through electron cryo‐tomograms of lysed P. aeruginosa ΔflgI cells showing the presence of the sub‐complex constituting the MS‐ring and the rod.
  • P
    Schematic representation of the sub‐complex described in (M–O).
  • Q
    A slice through an electron cryo‐tomogram of a P. aeruginosa ΔflgG cell highlighting the presence of the inner‐membrane sub‐complex.
  • R
    Schematic representation of the inner‐membrane sub‐complex shown in (Q).
