Requirement of Adenosine 3', 5'-Cyclic Phosphate for Flagella Formation in Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium

^a Department of Microbiology, School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19140

ABSTRACT

Adenosine-3',5'-cyclic phosphate (cyclic AMP) is absolutely required for flagella formation and, hence, motility in cyclic AMP-deficient mutants of Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium.
