This chapter reviews the genetics and mapping of fla-che-mot genes, then the mechanisms of motility and chemotaxis, and finally, what is known about regulation of gene expression in the fla-che-mot system. It also concentrates on some important classes of mutations. Several mutations have been isolated on the basis of their abilities to reduce the level of autolytic enzyme expression. These strains were obtained by minimal mutagenesis and found to contain a single mutation that gave rise to a Lyt- Fla- phenotype. Chemotaxis in enteric bacteria is mediated through sets of cellular receptors that bind specific attractants. Such binding initiates a signal that is transduced through a series of protein intermediates by specific methylation-demethylation and phosphorylation-dephosphorylation. The most detailed information about the mechanisms involved in sensory transduction comes from studies of enteric bacteria, in which the majority of the genes involved in structural and regulatory roles are probably known and have been sequenced. As in Escherichia coli, the methylated chemotaxis proteins (MCPs) of Bacillus subtilis are integral membrane proteins that are methyl esterified on glutamate side chains as the result of methyl transfer from S-adenosylmethionine. Expression of the genes of the sensory pathway is regulated in both B. subtilis and enteric bacteria by the composition of the growth medium, by the stage of cell growth, and by the expression of other fla-che-mot genes needed for a functional sensory system.
