The filament of a bacterial flagellum is a tube-like organelle made of single protein – flagellin, and assembled into multiple polymorphic forms. The filament can be further discretized into four subunit domains (D0, D1, D2 and D3) along the radial direction. However, it remains unclear which subuni...
