Ultrastructure of SARS-CoV, FIPV, and MHV Revealed by Electron Cryomicroscopy 2006 .txt text/plain 1189 78 47 The current understanding of coronavirus ultrastructure relies heavily on transmission electron microscopy of negatively stained images. Each virus appeared approximately round in cryo-EM images, with a fringe of spikes protruding from the viral membrane and a region of lower density near the virion center ( Fig. 1A-B) . Spike-depleted SARS-CoV particles appeared similar to spike-depleted MHV particles in negative stain, but were produced in lower yield, not suitable for effective cryo-EM imaging. The arrangement of spike densities near the center of some particles approximates a rhombus, which would not be inconsistent with a paracrystalline organization of spikes as observed in the virions of pleomorphic arenavirus particles, 17 or a local hexagonal close-packing of structural proteins as observed in retroviral particles.
