RE: Bacterial Microcompartments: Nano-Bioreactor
This was new to me. When I saw the image first I thought is it like some ancient Virus trapped inside bacteria (like ancient bacteria trapped inside eukaryotes which became mitochondria.) Then I came to reality leaving my imagination :)
Thanks for your comment @dexterdev
Yeah, the microcompartments look somewhat similar to the virus head...... :)
These are just the bodies lying inside the bacterial cell and have the function in conversion pathways.
