Structures of chaperone-substrate complexes docked onto the export gate in a type III secretion system

Bacterial flagella are composed of proteins secreted by a type III secretion system (T3SS), which requires the action of dedicated chaperones. Here, Xing et al. report the structures of two ternary complexes among flagellar chaperones, flagellar protein substrates, and the export gate platform prote...
