Figure 4Electron microscopy of 042 and mutants. (
a) Immunogold transmission electron microscopy for Aap protein. Black arrows indicate surface protein detected by anti-Aap antibody. Strains examined by scanning electron microscopy are 042 (
b and
c), 042
aafA (
d), 042
aap (
e–
g), and 042
aap(pAap) (
h). In
i, 042
aap was incubated with 3 mg/ml purified Aap protein prior to fixing and staining. White arrows indicate AAF fimbriae in all specimens. All bars indicate 1 μm.
