Cells were grown in LYI medium supplemented with 100 µM hemin (H9039; Sigma-Aldrich). Cells were fixed, DAB labeled, and processed for TEM as described in reference 25. The pellets were then postfixed in 2% osmium tetroxide in 0.1 M phosphate buffer, pH 7.4, at 4°C for 2 h; dehydrated in ethanol, followed by acetone; and embedded in LX-112 (Ladd, Burlington, Vermont). Ultrathin sections (approximately 50 to 60 nm) were cut by a Leica Ultracut UCT ultramicrotome (Leica, Vienna, Austria) and examined in a Hitachi HT 7700 (Hitachi, Tokyo, Japan) at 80 kV. Digital images were taken with a Veleta camera (Olympus Soft Imaging Solutions, GmbH, Münster, Germany).
