Figure 4. Scanning electron micrographs of Streptomyces
exfoliatus SMF19 cells. a, Spore formation by septation of
wild type hyphae. b, The absence of sporulation in a BLIP-II
knock-out mutant produces the so-called 'bald' phenotype. c,
Comparison of the structures of TEM-1 -lactamase
(orange) and the Streptomyces K15 penicillin binding protein
(K15 PBP)30 (blue), highlighting the overall structural
similarities. The region in TEM-1 to which BLIP-II binds is
colored green, as is the structurally equivalent region in the
K15 PBP. The active site Ser-Lys dyads are shown as
ball-and-stick renderings.
