There’s a motor on this thing’s tail. 🦠⚙️
Scientists studied it for 50 years. Last month? They finally figured out how it spins.
The bacterial flagellar motor. 45 nanometers wide. 30 proteins, self-assembled. Runs on protons, not batteries. Reverses direction instantly.
After 50 years of work, one researcher said: "My lifelong pursuit is now realized."
Nature’s nano-engineering. Absolute perfection.#BacterialMotor #MolecularBiology #CryoEM #NatureEngineering #ScienceBreakthrough #FlagellarMotor
