- Bacterial ratchet motors (2009, background): “driven by bidirectional rotary motors embedded in the cell wall [13, 14, 15].”
- The hydrodynamics of swimming microorganisms (2008, background): “coli and Salmonella typhimurium is the bacterial flagellum, consisting of a rotary motor, a helical filament, and a hook which connects the motor to the filament [34, 35, 36].”
- Active Particles in Complex and Crowded Environments (2016, background): “The simplified picture of a microswimmer composed of two counter-rotating rigid units holds only for swimming procaryotes like bacteria whose flagella are passive filaments connected to the cell body via a rotary motor (Berg, 2003).”
- Target highlights from the first post-PSI CASP experiment (CASP12, May–August 2016) (2017, neutral): “The motor drives the propeller-like motion of the filament, which confers swimming motility to the bacteria.(6) An important structural and functional component of bacterial flagella is the flagellar capping protein, FliD, that is located at the distal end of the flagellar filament.”
- Physics of microswimmers—single particle motion and collective behavior: a review (2014, neutral): “Hence, swimming concepts of the high Reynolds number macroworld are ineffective on small scales. In the evolutionary process, microorganisms acquired propulsion strategies, which successfully overcome and even exploit viscous drag. The design of artificial nano- and microswimmers is highly desirable”
- Breaking symmetries in induced-charge electro-osmosis and electrophoresis (2005, methodology): “Or, from a biomimetic standpoint, ICEO spinners are analogous to rotary motor proteins, such as those that drive bacterial flagellar rotation (Berg 2003) and F1 ATP-ase (Kinosita, Adachi & Itoh 2004), and represent simple rotary motors.”
