Figure 5.2 PolyPs in different compartments of the cells of Saccahromyces cerevisiae (lead staining)
(Voˇr´ıˇsek et al., 1982): (a) PolyP in vacuoles (the arrow indicates a metachromatic granule); (b) PolyP
in a cell nucleus (the arrow indicates the nuclear membrane); (c) PolyP in internal cell wall layers
at ‘phosphate overplus’; (d) PolyP in vacuoles after ‘phosphate overplus’: the scale bars are equal to
0.5 µm.
