NOTES Electron Microscopy of Small Cells: Mycoplasma hominis JACK MANILOFF Departments of Microbiology and ofradiation Biology and Biophysics, University of Rochester, School of Medicine and Dentistry, Rochester, New York Received for publication 14 August 1969 The size, ultrastructure, and reproduction of Mycoplasma hominis species H39 were studied by electron microscopy. These are the smallest known cells. Mycoplasma hominis species H39 has one of less-steel grids were suspended on a stainless-steel the smallest cellular genomes (9) and, hence, screen in organ culture dishes (60 by 15 nm; would be expected to be among the smallest Falcon Plastics). A drop of an exponential-phase cellular systems. To study the size, cytology, and culture was put on the grids, and fresh medium mode of replication of such small cells, thinsection and negative-staining electron microscopy When the medium reached the level of the screen was slowly added to the well below the screen. have been used. containing the grids and culture, the drop of For thin-section studies, an exponentially culture was drawn down by surface forces, depositing the cells on the grids. The dishes were growing liquid culture of M. hominis species H39 (6) was added to an equal volume of cold then incubated at 37 C and the cells, in contact 12.5% glutaraldehyde (in 0.1 M cacodylate) and with liquid medium below the grid, grew into fixed in the cold for 2 hr. After harvesting by microcolonies. The grids were then fixed in 6.25% centrifugation (10 min at 14,000 X g) some samples were postfixed with osmium tetroxide (4). silicotungstic acid. glutaraldehyde and negatively stained with 2% The pellets were then dehydrated, embedded in A typical microcolony is shown in Fig. 5, Epon, sectioned, uranyl-stained (8), and examined on a Siemen's Elmiskop I (converted to tubule. where two cells can be seen to be connected by a IA) electron microscope. Since these micrographs of exponentially growing cells must contain cells distributed of all The cells appear as short filaments or rods (Fig. 1 and 2) about 0.25 jum wide. The only stages of growth, it is possible to construct a membraneous structure is the bounding unit probable life cycle from them. The daughter M. surface membrane, about 8.0 to 8.5 nm thick. hominis species H39 cells are small coccoids. Each The intracytoplasmic material appears as granules cell grows and elongates, and replication occurs of several sizes and densities, and as dispersed by a binary fission event. At this stage the two nuclear material. dividing daughter cells are about 0.25 by 0.33 Some cells appear to be two parts, connected,um; these are then the smallest known cells. As by a thin tubule (Fig. 2 and 3). The tubule, which the daughter cells move apart, they remain connected by a tubule of membrane-bounded cyto- is about 17 to 19 nm thick, is two back-to-back unit membranes. These tubules can also be seen plasm. The tubule becomes longer and thinner, in whole cells fixed with glutaraldehyde and negatively stained with 2% silicotungstic acid (Fig. eventually breaks. Cells in all of these stages can appearing as two back-to-back membranes, and 4). It should be noted that the tubule diameter be seen in Fig. 2. The growing cells probably is less than the 30-nm value which Robertson tend to stick together, giving rise to the clumps (11) states should be the smallest diameter for seen in phase-contrast microscopy of cell suspensions (10). membrane structures. To examine growing cells, M. hominis microcolonies were grown on electron microscope grids. M. hominis species H39 are similar to those found The ultrastructural features reported here for For these studies, Formvar-carbon coated stain- for AM. neurolyticum (12) and for M. hominis 1402

Maniloff, Bacteriol Proc., p. 78, 1968). The binary fission mode of replication found for M. hominis has also been noted for M. orale (2), M. pneumoniae (3), M. gallisepticum (7), M. laidlawii (J. Maniloff, in preparation), and suggested for several other Mycoplasma (5). I wish to thank Madalyn Smith for her excellent technical assistance.
