Gliding motility is a form of actin-based motility in apicomplexa and diatoms that uses a large complex of proteins to link force generation by an internal actomyosin network to an external substrate.[1]Other studies have shown more detail in this mechanism in the apicomplexa.[2]

Gliding motility is the non-flagellar movement of bacteria on surfaces. It appears that little is known about the mechanism(s) of this form of motility since highly diverse bacteria can all display this similar phenotype.
