Figure 6
Electron micrographs of negatively stained virus particles recovered from the supernatant of BHK cells transfected with either Sindbis virus S420Y ((a) and (c)) or Y180S/E183G ((b), (d), (e), (f), (g), and (h)). (a) and (b): a wider view of the fields. (c)–(h): individual particles arranged to show examples of the various sizes found for the Y180S/E183G mutant ((d)–(h)) as compared to the control S420Y particle (c). Arrows point to morphological units. Bars, 100 nm. Ferreira et al. 2003 [47].
