Flagellar motor switch protein FliG

UniProtKB accession:  O25119

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  One of the proteins that forms a switch complex that is proposed to be located at the base of the basal body. This complex interacts with chemotaxis proteins (such as CheY) in addition to contacting components of the motor that determine the direction of flagellar rotation. Required for flagellum synthesis and motility. In H.pylori four flagellar switch proteins are encoded, FliG, FliM, FliN and FliY.
