The positions of all Woronin bodies in five germlings of Aspergillus nidulans prepared by plunge freezing and freeze substitution were determined by transmission electron microscopy. As expected, Woronin bodies were found near septa. High numbers of morphologically identical organelles were also found in apical regions. To verify that these organelles were authentic Woronin bodies, we used antibodies raised against the Neurospora crassa Woronin body matrix protein Hex1. Anti-Hex1 antibodies… CONTINUE READING
