Electron microscopy of purified protein preparations indicated that Helicobacter pylori urease consisted of circular particles that are 13 nm in diameter, some of which showed indications of threefold rotational symmetry. A GroEL analog of H. pylori (Hp60K) appeared as a disc-shaped molecule with a diameter similar to that of urease but possessed sevenfold rotational symmetry. In a side-view projection, Hp60K appeared as two or four discs stacked side by side.
纯化蛋白质制剂的电子显微镜检查表明,幽门螺杆菌尿素酶由直径为13nm的圆形颗粒组成,其中一些显示出三重旋转对称的迹象。幽门螺杆菌的一种GroEL类似物(Hp60K)呈现为盘状分子,其直径与尿素酶相似,但具有七重旋转对称。在侧视图投影中,Hp60K呈现为两个或四个并排堆叠的圆盘。
