Fluorescence Microscopy Study of the Intracellular Sulfur Globule Protein SgpD in the Purple Sulfur Bacterium <i>Allochromatium vinosum</i>

When oxidizing reduced sulfur compounds, the phototrophic sulfur bacterium <i>Allochromatium vinosum</i> forms spectacular sulfur globules as obligatory intracellular–but extracytoplasmic–intermediates. The globule envelope consists of three extremely hydrophobic proteins: SgpA and SgpB,...
