Figure 2. Applying automated neural-network based annotation and subtomogram analysis to study RuBisCO distribution and packing in individual carboxysomes.
Left: slice views of a carboxysome and a cytosolic RuBisCO cluster; Middle: isosurface views of a carboxysome and of a RuBisCO cluster. The carboxysome is radially colored with blue representing the innermost layer of RuBisCO, green, representing the middle layer, and red to represent the outermost layer. Right: top and side views of RuBisCO subtomogram averages from carboxysomes (top) and from cytosolic clusters (bottom).
