| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Many of the Bacteroidetes phylum bacteria such as Flavobacterium johnsoniae exhibit rapid gliding motility on the substratum by a unique mechanism. This gliding motility relies on novel gliding machinery consisting of Gld and Spr proteins and requires SprB adhesin. SprB is a thin filament of 150 nm length extending from the cell surface, it is thought that SprB movement on the bacterial body along the closed spiral loop and attachment to the substratum cause rotation and translation of the bacterial cell. The multi-rail structure by GldJ is on the inner surface of the outer membrane, and gliding motility is supposed to occur by the movement of SprB adhesin along this structure.
