What is The Engineering of Bacteria Bearing Azido-Pseudaminic Acid-Modified Flagella about?

## Abstract **Catch a tiger by the tail**: We have demonstrated that by feeding nonmotile mutant __C. jejuni__ bacteria with a neutral azide‐labelled pseudaminic acid precursor we can restore their ability to generate functional flagella. The presence of azido‐pseudaminic acid on the surface of the flagella provides a bio‐orthogonal chemical handle that can be used to modify the flagellar proteins.magnified image
