Introduction

Figure 2.The outer membrane (Om), inner membrane (IM), peptidoglycan layer (PG), and periplasmic flagellum (PF) in a 3-D reconstruction of intact L. interrogans (A) and L. biflexa (B).Zoom-in views reveal the detail of the cell envelope of L. interrogans (C) and L. biflexa (D). Panels E and F show the density profiles of L. interrogans and L. biflexa, respectively.
