====''Salmonella''====

FlhB from ''Salmonella typhimurium'' consists of 383 amino acids. The cytoplasmic domain 219-383 (length 165, 43% of full length) was crystallized. The resulting model [[3b0z]] includes coordinates for residues 229-353 (length 125, 76% of the crystallized length). The [[asymmetric unit]] contains a single molecule (<scene name='User:Fadel_A._Samatey/Workbench/I3DC-1/Flhb_st/6'>restore initial scene</scene>). As explained in the publication, the position of the long alpha helix appears to be stabilized by

crystal contacts (not shown).

The chain is <scene name='User:Fadel_A._Samatey/Workbench/I3DC-1/Cleavage/1'>cleaved at NPTH between Asn269 and Pro270</scene>. This is believed to be autocatalytic cleavage involved in the transition of the export apparatus from hook to filament mode.

====''Aquifex''====

FlhB from the thermophile<ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquifex_aeolicus Optimum growth ~90<sup>o</sup> C].</ref> ''Aquifex aeolicus'' is shorter, 350 residues (vs. 383 for ''S. typhimurium''), with 32% sequence identity. Residues 213-350 (length 138) were crystallized, and the resulting model [[3b1s]] has three molecules in the [[asymmetric unit]]. The molecule displayed here, with chains designated C and D, was chosen because it has the lowest average [[temperature factor]] (66.2, vs. 84.7 and 72.6 for A,B and E,F respectively). It has coordinates for 232-337 (length 106, 77% of the crystallized segment), cleaved at NPTH between Asn263 and Pro264.

Brief Introduction

FlhB is a membrane protein that is part of the flagellum-specific secretion apparatus. It is required for secretion of flagellar proteins, and for bacterial motility. FlhB is paralogous to a protein in the virulence type III secretion system. (Please see the publication for a more detailed introduction.)
