Several bacterial flagellins are O-glycosylated with nonulosonic acids on surface-exposed
Serine/Threonine residues by Maf glycosyltransferases. The Clostridium botulinum Maf …

Motile pathogens often rely upon flagellar motility as an essential virulence factor and in
many species the structural flagellin protein is glycosylated. This post-translational …

Flagella have been described as an important virulence factor for initial attachment to the
host or to the surface of hospital equipment. However, how bacteria use their flagella to …

Motility is an important virulence factor for many pathogenic bacteria, enabling locomotion
towards favourable conditions and away from hostile environments. Flagellar-mediated …
