Mutants in Disulfide Bond Formation that Disrupt Flagellar Assembly in Escherichia coli

We report the isolation and characterization of Escherichia coli mutants (dsbB) that fail to assemble functional flagella unless cystine is present. Flagellar basal bodies obtained from these mutants are missing the L and P rings. This defect in assembly appears to result from an inability to form a...
