Fig. 2: Time-lapse images showing the kink-based cell movements.
From: Cytoskeletal components can turn wall-less spherical bacteria into kinking helices

Darkfield microscopy images were recorded in S. citri (top) and in McapmreB1-5-fib (bottom). White arrows point to kinks. Note the helicity shift upon propagation of the kink along the cell body. These micrographs are representative of at least 3 independent experiments. Scale bar: 5 µm.
