Fig. 4

Formation of curved/helical YFP-MreB filaments extending from the planar membrane layer. a Z-stack through several planes away from the planar membrane, showing extension and branching of filaments. Apparent helical architecture is indicated by white triangles, different planes are indicated by white bar within rectangle. b-d Deconvoluted images of Z-stacks, B) single YFP-MreB filament, (c) single CFP-Mbl filament, (d) YFP-MreB filament in the presence of 100 mM potassium. Filament formation was induced through addition of 10 mM magnesium. White bars 1 μm
