AD Representative cryoFIB/SEM slices of a SARS-CoV-2-infected cell at the cell periphery (A), cytoplasm (B), cell nucleus (C), and invagination of cytoplasm into the nuclear space (note, from a different cell) (D). Scale bars, 500 nm in AC, 1 µm in D. Black and red arrows, extracellular and intracellular virus particles, respectively; blue arrows, nuclear pores; pink arrows, complex membrane compartment; dashed purple arrow, invagination path. V vesicles, T tunnels, Nuc nucleus, Cyto cytoplasm, ER endoplasmic reticulum. E Surface rendering of the segmented volume of SARS-CoV-2-infected cell shown in AC. Segmented organelles and virus particles are labeled with the colors indicated. The dashed lines (E, top left panel) indicate the positions of slices shown in AC, respectively.
