A high resolution view of a median longitudinal section through this collecting canal that may be artificially swollen at two sites where it is encircled by structural microtubules. Smooth spongiome ...

A high resolution micrograph of the collecting canal of the contractile vacuole surrounded by smooth spongiome remnants and decorated tubules of the CVC. Microtubules bordering the flattened collectin...

High resolution image of the interphase micronucleus with only a small amount of b-tubulin in its matrix or on its nuclear envelope. Segments of microtubules are scattered in the cytosol. Immunogold l...

A high resolution view of the Contractile Vacuole Complex. The CV membrane has collapsed into regularly spaced tubules oriented perpendicular to the microtubular ribbon in this ruptured cell. Some tub...

To determine what happens to the CV during systole we observed the CV in a living cell and then fixed the cell as soon as the CV had opened to the outside. It was apparent that the CV membrane does no...

Cubic membrane such as this array represents the cell’s method of storing large quantities of lipid and protein bilayers into the smallest possible volume. These membranes can quickly expand into pl...

A high resolution view of the radial arm of the Contractile Vacuole Complex or CVC each contain a collecting canal enclosed by a microtubular ribbon split lengthwise into several smaller ribbons, a me...

The interphase micronucleus has only a small amount of b-tubulin in its matrix or on its nuclear envelope. Segments of microtubules are scattered in the cytosol. Immunogold labeled for anti-b-tubulin....

An image showing the mitochondria packed with tubular cristae and the cytosol contains a jumble of microtubules. Basal bodies of the somatic kineties appear as dikinetids with a ribbon of transverse m...

Toxoplasma gondii double stable clone expressing TgAPR1-mCherryFP (an MTOC protein) and EGFP-beta1-tubulin. 3D stack image of a live unfixed specimen acquired using API Delta Vision on Olympus ix70 w...
