Fig. 5. Cgo1 (ALPR1_12695) and Cgo2 (ALPR1_12690) are cargo proteins filling the tube lumen.

Fig. 5

a, Top: cryoET slices of purified wild-type AlgoCIS and different deficient mutants showing that the fractions of empty AlgoCIS particles are significantly increased in mutants (wild-type, ntotal = 2,620; Cgo1/Cgo2, ntotal = 543; Cgo1, ntotal = 1,383; Cgo2, ntotal = 1,104). Bottom left: representative filled and empty AlgoCIS particles. Bottom right: quantification (blue, filled; red, empty). The individual empty AlgoCIS particles are highlighted by red arrowheads, whereas one filled AlgoCIS particle is highlighted by a blue arrowhead. Tomographic slices are 10.8 nm thick. Scale bars, 50 nm. b, Central volume slices showing the sub-tomogram averages of wild-type AlgoCIS (left) and Cgo1/Cgo2 (middle). The difference map (right) between wild-type and Cgo1/Cgo2 mutant shows additional densities in cyan (corresponding to cargo proteins) and the remaining parts in white. Scale bars, 10 nm.
