Résumé

L'examen au microscope électronique de sections ultra-minces de différentes portions du byssus deMytilus galloprovincialis a révélé pour la première fois la présence de structures filamenteuses périodiques (FBE). Leur période a une longueur de 1000 Å en moyenne, elle est symétrique et comporte deux fractions: A et B. Il est possible que ces structures correspondent à une organisation particulière de la protéine collagène.
