IU biologists find a hidden weak spot in how bacteria build the tails they use to move

New research from the College of Arts and Sciences at Indiana University Bloomington has uncovered a previously unknown vulnerability in how bacteria build the whip-like tails they use to move. These findings could help scientists find new ways to fight bacterial infections, especially at a time when drug resistant bacteria are a growing public health threat.
