Flagellins polymerise to form bacterial flagella. There is some similarity between this entry and Pfam:PF00669, particularly the motif NRFXSXIXXL. It has been suggested that these two regions associate [2] and this is shown to be correct as structurally this domain forms an extended helix that interacts with the N-terminal region (Pfam:PF00669) to form the D0 and D1 structural domains [3]. These domains are responsible for the activation of TLR5, with the C-terminal D0 region playing a key role [4-6].
This domain is found in the central portion bacterial flagellin FliC. The domain contains a structural motif called a beta-folium fold [1]. Although no specific function is assigned to this domain its deletion leads to a reduction in filament stabi ...
This domain is found in the central portion bacterial flagellin FliC. The domain contains a structural motif called a beta-folium fold [1]. Although no specific function is assigned to this domain its deletion leads to a reduction in filament stability [2].
This entry represents a barrel domain of flagellins FliC and FljB, which have a boomerang-shape with one arm composed of domain D1 and the other formed by D2 and D3 [1-3]. This entry corresponds to to subdomain D2b described in [4].
