Abstract:
:The stator of the sodium-driven flagellar motor of Vibrio alginolyticus is a membrane protein complex composed of four PomA and two PomB subunits. PomB has a peptidoglycan-binding motif in the C-terminal region. In this study, four kinds of PomB deletions in the C terminus were constructed. None of the deletion proteins restored motility of the DeltapomB strain. The PomA protein was coisolated with all of the PomB derivatives under detergent-solubilized conditions. Homotypic disulfide cross-linking of all of the deletion derivatives through naturally occurring Cys residues was detected. We conclude that the C-terminal region of PomB is essential for motor function but not for oligomerization of PomB with itself or PomA.
