The paper determines the in situ structure of a high-torque bacterial flagellar motor using cryogenic electron microscopy, revealing protein adaptations and universal principles of torque generation.

This study identifies a small protein, PflE, essential for flagellar assembly and virulence in Campylobacter jejuni by using transposon sequencing in a humanized tissue model.

The paper uses complementary Ribo-seq methods to map the translatome of Campylobacter jejuni, identifying novel small open reading frames and refining gene annotations.

HRIBO is a workflow for analyzing bacterial Ribo-seq data to discover novel ORFs, using annotation-independent methods and integrating additional features for prioritization.
