Gliding motility

Gliding motility is a type of translocation used by microorganisms that is independent of cell-surface appendages such as flagella, pili, and fimbriae. Gliding allows microorganisms to travel along the surface of thin aqueous films. The mechanisms of this motility are only partially known.
