Fig. 3: Recognition of CMFs and CNFs in WT and Osfc16 mutant.

a, b CBM3a-probed AFM topography and corresponding recognition images after NaClO2 treatments at different concentrations. Black and red lines indicate fibers in topography and recognition images, respectively. c, d Cross profile corresponding for black and red lines to recognize CMFs (8% NaClO2). e, f Cross profile corresponding for black and red lines to recognize CNFs. RNFL, recognition nanofibers length (16% NaClO2); Data as means ± SD (n = 100 recognized nanofibers counted from three biologically independent samples). AFM experiments were repeated at least three times independently with similar results. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
