The carboxysomes of Thiobacillus neapolitanus are shown, by electron microscopy, to consist of a paracrystalline array of 10-nm particles surrounded by a "membrane." The 10-nm particles have a center hole or depression and have been previously identified as ribulose diphosphate carboxylase. The membrane is a monolayer approximately 3.5-nm thick.
通过电子显微镜观察发现,那不勒斯硫杆菌的羧酶体由10纳米颗粒的准晶体阵列组成,周围环绕着一层“膜”。这些10纳米的颗粒有一个中心孔或凹陷,之前已被鉴定为二磷酸核酮糖羧化酶。该膜是一层约3.5纳米厚的单分子层。
