CC   -!- FUNCTION: Acts as an anti-CsrA protein, binds CsrA and prevents it from
CC       repressing translation of its target genes, one of which is flagellin.
CC       Binds to flagellin and participates in the assembly of the flagellum.
CC   -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts with translational regulator CsrA and flagellin(s).
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the FliW family.

Comments: The ancestral operon is thought to be Fliw-CsrA, where CsrA is
 dedicated to controlling flagellar assembly and motility. Rounds of gene
 loss and re-acquisition in Gammaproteobacteria (which only rarely encode
 FliW) have lead to CsrA being repurposed for a larger role in translation
 control. See PubMed:25833324, Vakulskas et al., Microbiol. Mol. Biol. Rev.
 79:193-224(2015) for a review.
