Description

Flagellum-specific ATPase/type III secretory pathway virulence-related protein. This group of ATPases are responsible for the export of flagellum and virulence-related proteins. The bacterial flagellar motor is similar to the F0F1-ATPase, in that they both are proton-driven rotary molecular devices. However, the main function of the bacterial flagellar motor is to rotate the flagellar filament for cell motility. Intracellular pathogens such as Salmonella and Chlamydia also have proteins which are similar to the flagellar-specific ATPase, but function in the secretion of virulence-related proteins via the type III secretory pathway.
