Flagellar assembly protein T, middle domain FlgT_M is the middle region of a family of flagellar proteins that make up part of the basal body of the flagellum. The flagellum is a large macromolecular assembly composed of three major parts: the basal body, the hook, and the filament. The basal body has two unique ring structures, the T ring and the H ring. FlgT is required to form and stabilize both ring structures. FlgT-N and FlgT-M are thought to be involved in the H-ring and the T-ring formation, respectively. and FlgT-M is also required for the stable association of FlgT with the basal body.
