Abstract:
The expression of the flagellar master operon, flhDC, peaked in the middle of three consecutive cell cycles. The level of expression was lowest at the time of cell division. The expression of the second-level operon, flhB, peaked at cell division. The swimming speed of individual cells was also highest at the time of cell division.
