Periplasmic flagella in Borrelia burgdoferi function to maintain cellular integrity upon external stress.
Tapping mode atomic force microscopy (AFM) in solution was used to analyze the role of the internally located periplasmic flagella (PFs) of the Lyme disease spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi in withstanding externally applied cellular stresses.
