Molecular Mechanisms of Mechanical Force Sensing by Bacterial Flagellar Motors

Illustration for: Molecular Mechanisms of Mechanical Force Sensing by Bacterial Flagellar Motors
project

The flagellar motor in E. coli can sense mechanical forces. We discovered a mechanism involved in this sensing. See Tweetorial for a quick explanation.
