The portion of the central rod of the flagellar basal body that is proximal to the cell membrane; proximal rod connects the distal rod to the flagellar motor. Examples of this component are found in bacteria. Any constituent part of a flagellum, a long whiplike or feathery structure borne either singly or in groups by the motile cells of many bacteria and unicellular eukaryotes and by the motile male gametes of many eukaryotic organisms, which propel the cell through a liquid medium. Any constituent part of flagellum, a 20 nm diameter filament composed of subunits of flagellin driven passively at its base by a motor powered by the transmembrane proton potential. Examples of this component are found in bacterial species. Any constituent part of a cell projection, a prolongation or process extending from a cell, e.g. a flagellum or axon. Long whiplike or feathery structures borne either singly or in groups by the motile cells of many bacteria and unicellular eukaryotes and by the motile male gametes of many eukaryotic organisms, which propel the cell through a liquid medium. The long (approximately 20 nm), thin external structure of the flagellum, which acts as a propeller. Examples of this component are found in bacteria. Organized structure of distinctive morphology and function, not bounded by a lipid bilayer membrane and occurring within the cell. Includes ribosomes, the cytoskeleton and chromosomes. A motor complex composed of an extracellular helical protein filament coupled to a rotary motor embedded in the cell envelope. One of the rings of the flagellar basal body; a double-flanged ring that anchors the basal body to the cytoplasmic membrane. Examples of this component are found in bacteria. One of the rings of the flagellar basal body; anchors the basal body to the outer membrane. Examples of this component are found in bacteria. One of the rings of the flagellar basal body; anchors the basal body to the peptidoglycan layer. Examples of this component are found in bacteria. Cytoplasmic ring located at the base of the flagellar basal body; acts as a rotor; includes three switch proteins, which generate torque and can change their conformational state in a bimodal fashion, so that the motor direction can switch between clockwise and counterclockwise. Examples of this component are found in bacteria. One of the three major substructures of the flagellin-based flagellum; a structure consisting of a rod, a series of rings, the Mot proteins, the switch complex and the flagellum-specific export apparatus. The rings anchor the flagellum to the cytoplasmic membrane (MS ring), the peptidoglycan (P ring) and the outer membrane (L ring). Examples of this component are found in bacteria. The portion of the central rod of the flagellar basal body that is distal to the cell membrane; spans most of the distance between the inner and outer membranes. Examples of this component are found in bacteria. The portion of the flagellum that connects the filament to the basal body. Examples of this component are found in bacteria. The central portion of the flagellar basal body, which spans the periplasm and threads through the rings. Examples of this component are found in Bacterial species. The proteinaceous structure at the distal tip of the flagellar filament. Examples of this component are found in bacteria. The region of the flagellum where the hook and filament meet. Examples of this component are found in bacteria.
