Note that D2 consists of a continuous segment of the protein chain, while D1 is made up of discontinuous segments. D0 (not shown, see above, also discontinuous) is attached to D1, and D0 forms the inner channel of the hook. D2 forms the outer surface of the hook. | Note that D2 consists of a continuous segment of the protein chain, while D1 is made up of discontinuous segments.

From the curved model of the hook (see below), here is a short segment just <scene name='The_Bacterial_Flagellar_Hook/Flagellar_hook_3rings_pdb_gz/3'>three Flg31 monomers long</scene>. Each color represents one of the 11 protofilaments. Since each protofilament is 3 monomers in length, there are 33 monomers in this model. You can see how the Flg31 monomers fit into the hook when <scene name='The_Bacterial_Flagellar_Hook/Flagellar_hook_3rings_pdb_gz/2'>two monomers are highlighted</scene>. | From the curved model of the hook (see below), here is a short segment just <scene name='The_Bacterial_Flagellar_Hook/Flagellar_hook_3rings_pdb_gz/3'>three Flg31 monomers long</scene>.
