FliC Desulfovibrio producer

FliC, the main swimming protein (K1951006 + K880005)

General

Flagellin C (FliC) protein from Desulfovibrio vulgaris strain is the main protein constitutive of the flagellum filament and is involved to promote bacterial swimming[1]. This sequence is conserved in many bacterial strains as the capacity of swimming given by the flagellum confers a great selective advantage.

Metal Biosorption Capacity

It has been demonstrated that Flagellin has the ability to adsorb precious metal on its surface such as platinum, palladium gold [2]...

Immune response capacity

The propensity of the immune response to flagellin may be explained by two facts:

  • Flagellin is an extremely abundant protein in flagellated bacteria.
  • There exists a specific innate immune receptor that recognizes flagellin, Toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5). [3]

.


We assess the production of the protein by a SDS page/comassie test. We made a FliC mutant by transduction using phage P1 in a E. Coli W3110 strain.
