Inhibition of a type III secretion system by the deletion of a short loop in one of its membrane proteins.

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.)
