Purification and characterization of the flagellar hook-basal body complex of Salmonella typhimurium.

abstract：:The uropathogenic Escherichia coli strain 536 carries at least five genetic elements on its chromosome that meet all criteria characteristic of pathogenicity islands (PAIs). One main feature of these distinct DNA regions is their instability. We applied the so-called island-probing approach and individually labeled al...
