A view of early endosomes with coated evaginations at their margins. TEM taken on 8/15/67 by R. Allen with Philips 200 operating at 60kV. Neg. 19,200X. Bar = 0.5µm. The negative was printed to paper ...

Stages of coated pit vesicle invagination during micropinocytosis. Each frame is a portion of the surface of polychromatophilic erythroblasts from guinea pig bone marrow and various stages of vesicle...

The pellicular pore consists of the invaginated plasma membrane that penetrates the alveolus as well as the epiplasm and ends as a clathrin-coated pit. TEM taken on 3/14/72 by R. Allen with Hitachi HU...

The ingestion of Paramecium by Didinium. This micrograph also clearly shows the five short rows of clavate cilia (ciliary stubs without central microtubules) that reside just below the anterior and po...

Didinium captures Paramecium. Also showing metachronous waves of cilia in the two characteristic ciliary girdles of Didinium nasutum. This micrograph was taken in 1968 by G. Antipa on a Cambridge Mar...

Didinium ingests Paramecium. Also showing a few discharged trichocysts and metachronous waves of cilia in the two characteristic ciliary girdles of Didinium nasutum. This micrograph was taken in 1968 ...

Didinium captures Paramecium. A moment after initial contact when toxicysts enter Paramecium. The strand of toxicysts can be seen between the two organisms, and Didinium will use the anchored toxicyst...

Didinium captures Paramecium. It is not unusual for an undersized Didinium to attempt to ingest a much larger Paramecium. In this case, the organisms were preserved before the outcome could be determi...
