Recently, a research group led by Prof. WANG Junfeng from the Hefei Institute of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, along with Prof. HE Yongxing's research group from Lanzhou ...

B. cepacia are aerobic bacteria. This means that they need oxygen to survive. They have rod-like shapes and both long and short tendrils called flagella that help them move and cling to surfaces.

Cilia and flagella are evolutionarily conserved, microtubule-based, hair-like organelles that protrude from the cell surface. They are the fundamental units of motion in cellular biology, and also ...

Axonemes are molecular machines that enable the movement of cilia, the hair-like structures found on the surface of some cells. Atomic models of axonemes from the flagella of green algae and from the ...
