Inhibition of Escherichia coli chemotaxis by omega-conotoxin, a calcium ion channel blocker
J Bacteriol.
1993 Mar.
Abstract
Escherichia coli chemotaxis was inhibited by omega-conotoxin, a calcium ion channel blocker. With Tris-EDTA-permeabilized cells, nanomolar levels of omega-conotoxin inhibited chemotaxis without loss of motility. Cells treated with omega-conotoxin swam with a smooth bias, i.e., tumbling was inhibited.
