Figure 6. Secondary envelopment at axon terminals.

Figure 6

(A) Diagram of a neuron indicating an axon terminal. (B) Cryo electron microscopy (projection image) of an intact axon terminal at 16 h p.i.. Bar: 200 nm. (C) Slice of the tomogram taken in the area highlighted in (B), showing secondary envelopment of capsids. Asterisks: capsids; white arrow: enveloping vesicle; arrow head: glycoproteins; black arrows: tegument; pm: plasma membrane. Bar: 100 nm. (D) Surface rendering of the tomogram shown in (C). Capsid (light blue), tegument (orange), glycoproteins (yellow), actin (red), plasma membrane and vesicle membrane (blue).
