Description

Transmission electron micrograph of a large vacuole from a sertraline-treated swa2 mutant cell. (12,500X). This image is part of a group of yeast vacuole images (CIL:40437-40448). The image contributor encourages Library users to post comments regarding the identity of the organelle in the lower right of the image.

Technical Details

This group of images contains representative whole-cell images and high-magnification zooms of organelle structures of interest. All cells were grown in liquid rich media (YPD pH6.5) at 30C with aerated shaking, and cultures were sampled in mid-logarithmic phase. Treated cells were exposed to 60µM antidepressant sertraline (Zoloft®) for 45 minutes.
