Extended Data Fig. 10: Cryo-electron tomogram of a M. pneumoniae cell.
From: Essential protein P116 extracts cholesterol and other indispensable lipids for Mycoplasmas
(a) Representative 10 nm thick slice of a tomographic reconstruction of an individual M. pneumoniae cell depicting a possible P116 protein on the surface of the M. pneumoniae membrane (One slice from a tomogram is shown – 10 tomograms were recorded) (b) Gallery of different possible P116 proteins from several tomographic reconstructions depicting P116 attached to the membrane (P116 molecules could be observed from three independent preparations). Tomograms were acquired with a defocus of −3 µm.
