Bacterial Organization at the Smallest Level: Molecular Motors, Nanowires, and Outer Membrane Vesicles

摘要: Bacterial cells do not have many cytoplasmic structures but they several nanostructures that considerable molecular organization. Associated with the plasma membrane of bacteria are drive rotation bacterial flagella and synthesis adenosine triphosphate (ATP). These perform work for cell been considered as nanomotors or motors. In addition to these rotary nanomotors, also linear motors produce biopolymers secrete biomaterials across membrane. While a great deal is known about how work, there remains lot understand convert chemical energy mechanical translocation. Outside some conductive pili, nanowires, outer vesicles (OMV). It clear nanowires engage in unique phenomenon extracellular electron transport. OMV serve transfer different types host modify environment afford better area growth. This review examines current organization activities motors, OMV.
