Mycoplasma mycoides by David Goodsell
David Goodsell has completed an illustration of Mycoplasma mycoides internal architecture
Key components for protein synthesis are labelled in black, enzymes for energy production in red, membrane proteins in blue. Illustration by David S. Goodsell, the Scripps Research Institute
As for many illustrations of his last book The Machinery of Life (supported in part by a grant of the Fourmentin-Guilbert Scientific Foundation), David Goodsell has tried to include all of the macromolecules at reasonable locations and concentrations, and with the actual shapes and sizes.
