High resolution image on the multiple membrane systems at the cortex of ciliates. Thickened alveolar densities partially coat the alveolar membrane within the alveoli which underlie the plasma membran...

A longitudinal section of somatic cilia of Coleps showing the axoneme, basal body, and attached fibrous and microtubular elements. Adjacent digestive vacuoles and cortical cytoplasm evident with typic...

An individual cirrus of Euplotes with 91 cilia/basal body complexes. The transition from basal body to cilium can be followed from right to left in each row. Small vesicles, many containing electron o...

A segment of the edge of the axoneme showing the outer axonemal dynein arms that extend from the A-subfiber of a doublet to bind to the B subfiber of the adjacent doublet. TEM taken on 4/21/88 by C. S...

A high resolution cross section of a Coleps cilium showing the axoneme consisting of 9 doublet and 2 central microtubules. Doublets have a complete A subfiber and an attached B subfiber. Two dynein ar...

Longitudinal section of somatic cilium showing the axoneme, basal body, and attached fibrous and microtubular elements. Standard glutaraldehyde fixation followed by osmium tetroxide, dehydrated in alc...

A high resolution image of the cilia of a membranelle of the AZM (adoral zone of membranelles) have well defined doublets, singlets and dynein arms as well as spokes. Euplotes has a plasma membrane wh...

An image image of the multiple membrane systems at the cortex of ciliates. Thickened alveolar densities partially coat the alveolar membrane within the alveoli which underlie the plasma membrane of ci...

High resolution image of immunogold labeled microtubules next to the cytoproct radiate from basal bodies and also from the tip of the cytoproct. These microtubules lie along the approaching spent DV. ...

Cross section of a Coleps cilium showing the axoneme consisting of 9 doublet and 2 central microtubules. Doublets have a complete A subfiber and an attached B subfiber. Two dynein arms, outer and inne...
