Abstract
Gliding motility is defined as the movement of nonflagellated cells in the direction of its long axis on a solid surface and found in many phylogenetically diverse bacteria. Genetic, biochemical, ultrastructural, and behavioral studies have provided a wealth of information related to the mechanism of possible gliding apparatuses. Social motility of Myxococcus xanthus and the gliding of Synechocystis appear to rely on the function of type IV pili, similar to twitching motility of pseudomonas aeruginosa and Neisseria gonorrhoeae. In contrast, adventurous motility of M. xanthus and the gliding of filamentous cyanobacteria and Flavobacterium are not dependent on the pili. Instead, they appear to employ novel motility mechanisms that are currently being unveiled.
