Structure of vibriophage D10 tail sheath revealed by electron microscopy and computational image processing.
Vibriophage D10, a member of the Vibrio cholerae O-1El-Tor phage typing scheme, is used to detect the spread of the cholera epidemic and belongs to the Myoviridae family. The outer sheath of the tail of vibriophage is highly contractile in nature. We have used electron microscopy and computational image-processing techniques to determine the structure of this contractile tail sheath. The three-...
متن کاملStructure of (Na+,K+)-ATPase as revealed by electron microscopy and image processing
(Na+,K+)-ATPase was studied by electron microscopy and image processing of negatively stained and freeze-dried and shadowed crystalline sheets induced by a number of inorganic salts. Extensive experiments have identified new conditions for optimum crystal formation. Two crystal forms have been observed, one with a monomer and the other with a dimer, in the unit cell. Both show the same structur...
متن کاملEpithelial structure revealed by chemical dissection and unembedded electron microscopy
Cytoskeletal structures obtained after extraction of Madin-Darby canine kidney epithelial cell monolayers with Triton X-100 were examined in transmission electron micrographs of cell whole mounts and unembedded thick sections. The cytoskeleton, an ordered structure consisting of a peripheral plasma lamina, a complex network of filaments, and chromatin-containing nuclei, was revealed after extra...
متن کاملImmunoglobulin structure and function as revealed by electron microscopy.
Electron-microscopic (EM) analysis preceded crystallographic analysis [1,2] of Igs by over a decade and was for a time the only direct way of analyzing their 3-D molecular structure. Once the X-ray structures were deduced, the role of EM gradually shifted from gross structural analysis to the addressing of more sophisticated structural and functional questions. EM remains a vital adjunct to the...
متن کاملExamination of Lung Parenchyma by Electron Microscopy
In this paper many of the principal structure of the Moral Lung were studied with the help of Electron Microscopy. Detailed description was given of Granular Pneumocytes, Membranous Pneumocytes, Macrophages, and Alveolar Capillaries. A discussion followed on the form and function of Granular Pneumocytes. Acknowledgements I am grateful to the Reza Shah Pahlavi Foundation for its generou...
