Role of Flagellin-Homologous Proteins in Biofilm Formation by Pathogenic <italic toggle="yes">Vibrio</italic> Species
ABSTRACT The pathogenic bacterium Vibrio vulnificus exhibits the ability to form biofilm, for which initiation is dependent upon swimming motility by virtue of a polar flagellum. The filament of its flagellum is composed of multiple flagellin subunits, FlaA, -B, -C, and -D. In V. vulnificus genomes,...
