Abstract

To move in the environment, bacteria use several types of translocation. Sliding is a passive method of movement, which is carried out due to the expansive force, which increases during cell division. This review describes the sliding mechanism, different types of sliding mobility, from other types of bacteria. In addition, a classification of sliding types is used, surface active substances used by cells to slide. However, it is worth noting that bacterial slide mechanisms need further investigation.
