Protein Family Models

FliO is an essential component of the flagellum-specific protein export apparatus [1]. It is an integral membrane protein that acts as an assembly chaperone for the flagellar protein FliP (Pfam:PF00813). It is crucial, although not strictly required, for efficient FliP assembly and, thus flagellar assembly and function [2]. [1]. 10049367.
