Ultrastructure of the Obligate Halophilic Bacterium Halobacterium halobium

RESUMO

The fine structure of Halobacterium halobium was studied by means of a modified double-fixation technique. The cell envelope is shown to consist of both a “wall” and a plasma membrane. Some electron-dense strands were seen inside the cytoplasm running parallel to the cell envelope. An unusual organelle (or organelles) appeared inside the cytoplasm in the form of parallel striated strands.
