Figure 8.

Concentrations of the BlaC–CEF complex in 10 × 10 × 2 µm platelet-shaped crystals (a) 5 ms, (b) 10 ms and (c) 30 ms after mixing with 200 mM ceftriaxone (150 mM final concentration assumed). The concentrations are shown in different colors (see the scale bar on the right) in central cross sections through half the width of the crystals. The drawings are not to scale, since the sections displayed are 5 µm horizontally (width) and 2 µm vertically (thickness). The enlargement along the short 2 µm axis allows the display of the nuanced occupancy differences.
