| Comments |
P.730 right column bottom paragraph: "The map calculated for RNA polymerase in negative stain shows the surface topography of the molecule, so the outermost contour is of interest. This contour was chosen such that the individual molecules in the array were completely disconnected. The overall dimensions of a protein molecule were then ~90×95×160 Å, consistent with the dimensions determined previously by analysis in projection and from views of single particles (primary sources)." |
