The cryo-EM structure of the bacterial flagellum cap complex suggests a molecular mechanism for filament elongation

FliD forms a cap complex at the tip of bacterial flagella and is essential for flagellum filament assembly. Here, the authors present the cryo-EM structure of the Campylobacter jejuni cap complex, revealing a pentameric assembly of FliD and further show that the C. jejuni flagellum filament is 11-st...

description FliD forms a cap complex at the tip of bacterial flagella and is essential for flagellum filament assembly. Here, the authors present the cryo-EM structure of the Campylobacter jejuni cap complex, revealing a pentameric assembly of FliD and further show that the C. jejuni flagellum filament is 11-stranded.
