The intracellular formation of chemotactic signaling arrays is cell type specific and not a consequence of swarm cell elongation. Intracellular localization of YFP-CheW in wild-type swimmer cells of V. parahaemolyticus treated with the antibiotic Aztreonam in order to artificially induce elongation of swimmer cells. (A) Microscopy showing the intracellular localization of YFP-CheW. (B) Graph depicting the distance of YFP-CheW foci from the cell poles as a function of cell. (C) Demographic analysis showing the fluorescence intensity of YFP-CheW along the cell length in a population of V. parahaemolyticus cells relative to cell length.
