Figure 3: Effect of MtbHU overexpression on nucleoid structure.
From: Targeting Mycobacterium tuberculosis nucleoid-associated protein HU with structure-based inhibitors
Ultrastructure analysis of M. smegmatis cells overexpressing MtbHU. (a) In the electron micrographs control cells show the regular bi-lobular nucleoid (arrows), whereas (b) the MtbHU-overexpressing cells have highly compact electron dense nucleoid (arrows). Scale bars, 0.5 μm.
