Bacteria can move or swim by flagella. On the other hand, the motile ability is not necessary to live at all. In laboratory, the flagella-deficient strains can grow just like the wild-type strains. The flagellum is assembled from more than 20 structural proteins and there are more than 50 genes including the structural genes to regulate or support the flagellar formation. The cost to construct the flagellum is so expensive. The fact that it evolved as a motor organ means even at such the large cost shows that the flagellum is essential for survival in natural condition. In this review, we would like to focus on the flagella-related researches conducted by the authors and the flagellar research on Vibrio spp.
