Mycoplasmas, despite their minimalistic cellular architecture, display a distinct form of motility that sets them apart from other bacteria and eukaryotes. This gliding mechanism is powered by ...

Mycoplasmas, including bacteria that cause pneumonia in humans, are generally nonmotile, but Mycoplasma mobile, as the species name suggests, has been found in the gills of fish and seems to move by ...

厦门大学生命科学学院的研究人员发表了题为“ISP1-Anchored Polarization of GCβ/CDC50A Complex Initiates Malaria Ookinete Gliding Motility”的文章，揭示了疟疾病原疟原虫通过媒介按蚊传播过程中的关键步骤---控制动合子运动的环磷酸鸟苷cGMP信号的激活机制。 厦门大学生命科学 ...

来自哈佛医学院，波士顿儿童医院的研究人员发表了题为“Shape change in the receptor for gliding motility in Plasmodium sporozoites”的文章，完成了疟疾发生的重要表面蛋白的结构测定，并从中获得了功能启示。这项研究发表在《美国国家科学院院刊》（PNAS）杂志上。

Cells of Flavobacterium johnsoniae and of many other members of the phylum Bacteroidetes exhibit rapid gliding motility over surfaces by a unique mechanism. These cells do not have flagella or pili; ...

The ability to move enables many bacteria to reach a specific niche or to leave hostile environments. The bacterium Mycoplasma gallisepticum is a poultry pathogen that is capable of gliding over solid ...

For more than 20 years, Makoto Miyata from Osaka City University has been studying the gliding motility of the parasitic bacterium Mycoplasma mobile (M. mobile). It is a mechanism consisting of an ...

The molecular structure of the motor component that powers the gliding apparatus of Mycoplasma mobile, one of the few mycoplasma bacteria that can move, has been revealed using cryo-electron ...

Humans have been able to use machines to master movement, but there are many organisms that can get around just fine on their own. There are many organisms that can migrate, too, even microbes.
