Ultrastructural features of Mycoplasma pneumoniae.

The ultrastructure of Mycoplasma pneumoniae cultivated in broth on glass and plastic surfaces was studied by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The organisms grew as filaments, which by over-crossing eventually formed a dense network on the surface and in colonies composed mainly of rounded and elongated forms. The filaments were usually thinner at the ends and terminated with a knob-like structure. Some filaments possessed short ramifications which also ended with a knob, and others showed constrictions. Sectioned organisms were seen to contain ribosome-like structures. Many organisms had a specialized structure at their thinner end, which consisted of a dense rod surrounded by electron-lucent cytoplasm and ending with a platelike thickening.
