Figure 5. Nanoscale AFM imaging reveals the ultrastructure of Caulobacter cell surface.

Figure 5.

Contact-mode deflection images of ΔCCNA_00163 cells (A, C, E, G) and ΔhvyA cells (B, D, F, H) at low (AD) and high (EH) magnifications. White arrows indicate streaks generated by the AFM tip scanning the soft, loosely bound layer at the surface of ΔhvyA cells. Images were taken on bacteria from two independent cultures for each strain.
