Figure 1

(A) Thin section of a wild type H. neapolitanus cell harboring multiple carboxysomes (arrows). (B) Negatively stained purified carboxysomes. (C) The H. neapolitanus cso operon, which contains the genes for Form I RubisCO (cbbL, cbbS) and the carboxysomal shell proteins (csoS2, csoS3, csoS4A, csoS4B, csoS1C, csoS1A, csoS1B).
