The galaxy exhibits a prominent, well-defined spiral structure. The spiral arms are widespread. Two spiral arms appear to be dominant. These arms are moderately wound, neither tightly coiled nor loosely extended. The arms contain some HII regions with associated star formation. The core of the galaxy shows a elongated structure and a bright point of light at the center, perhaps indicating the presence of a bar. The bulge size is rather small. There is evidence of tidal disruption, with an asymmetric light profile indicating possible interaction with another galaxy.
