Multiple Roles of Flagellar Export Chaperones for Efficient and Robust Flagellar Filament Formation in Salmonella

FlgN, FliS, and FliT are flagellar export chaperones specific for FlgK/FlgL, FliC, and FliD, respectively, which are essential component proteins for filament formation. These chaperones facilitate the docking of their cognate substrates to a transmembrane export gate protein, FlhA, to facilitate th...
