Figure 6

Microscopic analyses of an OmpJ-deficient mutant. Transmission Electron Microscopy analyses of cells of the wild-type (A and C) and an OmpJ-deficient mutant (B and D) showing the enlargement of the periplasmic space in the OmpJ-mutant cells when compared with the wild type. A and B show negatively stained cells while C and D show micrographs of thin sections of, respectively, cells of the wild-type and OmpJ-deficient mutant strains. Bars, 1 μm.
