Discovery of a proteolytic flagellin family in diverse bacterial phyla that assembles enzymatically active flagella

So far no enzymatic activity has been attributed to flagellin, the major component of bacterial flagella. Here the authors use bioinformatic analysis and identify a metallopeptidase insertion in flagellins from 74 bacterial species and show that recombinant flagellin and flagellar filaments have pro...
