Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) from Gram-negative bacteria were first described more
than 50 years ago. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in biogenesis began to be …

The bacterial flagellum is an amazingly complex molecular machine with a diversity of roles
in pathogenesis including reaching the optimal host site, colonization or invasion …

The Epsilonproteobacteria is the fifth validly described class of the phylum Proteobacteria,
known primarily for clinical relevance and for chemolithotrophy in various terrestrial and …

Type IV pili are part of a widespread superfamily of bacterial and archaeal cell surface
structures important for biofilm formation, motility, host adhesion, predation, DNA uptake …

Campylobacter jejuni is the leading cause of bacterial diarrhoeal disease in many areas of

This review aimed to investigate the role of Helicobacter pylori flagella on the pathogenicity
of this bacterium in humans. Helicobacter pylori is a flagellated pathogen that colonizes the …

The flagellum and the injectisome are two of the most complex and fascinating bacterial
nanomachines. At their core, they share a type III secretion system (T3SS), a transmembrane …

Anaerobic bacterial gas fermentation gains broad interest in various scientific, social, and
industrial fields. This microbial process is carried out by a specific group of bacterial strains …

The bacterial flagellum is a reversible rotary motor powered by an electrochemical-potential
difference of specific ions across the cytoplasmic membrane. The H+-driven motor of …

The reduction of CO 2 emissions is a global effort which is not only supported by the society
and politicians but also by the industry. Chemical producers worldwide follow the strategic …
