FIG 3 — Capsule growth visualization by time-lapse microscopy. Capsule enlargement was observed based on the capsular “quellung” reaction produced by the 13F1 MAb. (A) Sequence of frames showing capsule and cell body enlargement. (B) The rate of capsule and cell body growth was determined by linear regression analysis of lengths as a function of time. The capsule enlargement speed was 8.8 nm/min, and the cell body enlargement speed was 3.6 nm/min. A plateau in capsule and cell body size is observed following yeast replication (boxed in gray).
