The high-resolution structures of nearly all the proteins that comprise the bacterial flagellar motor switch complex have been solved; yet a clear picture of the switching mechanism has not emerged. Here, we used NMR to characterize the interaction modes and solution properties of a number of these proteins, including several soluble fragments of the flagellar motor proteins FliM and FliG, and the response-regulator CheY. We find that activated CheY, the switch signal, binds to a previously unid ...[more]
