Correspondence of in situ and isolated Hermes body by EM tomography. (a) EM of in situ and (b) isolated Hermes body of epididymal sperm of (IS). Flattened cisternae (arrows), vesicular budding (clear arrowheads). Edges of cisternae in proximity to plasma membrane (dense arrowheads). (c) Tomography of isolated Hermes body reveals sheet-like unstacked flattened cisternae. (d) Series of successive slices (approx. 2.8 nm) of the enclosed area of figure 1b revealing a vesicle adjacent to a cisterna. F, flagellum.
