Cross fracture of cilia of the quadrulus. The basal body/cilium complexes are a little less tightly packed than in the peniculus. There are four or five rows of parasomal sacs interspersed with basal...

To characterize and validate the gluteraldehyde fixation method, a live amoeba syringe-loaded with Rhodamine-N58C-profilin-II was monitored in a flow cell as the fixative was introduced. This time se...

Polykinetids of one membranelle of the buccal cavity, probably membranelle 1. Accessory microtubules arise from the row of basal bodies on one side. Parasomal sacs are not seen associated with this me...

Adapted with permission. Extensions of cytopharyngeal microtubular ribbons that pass into the endoplasm from the cytopharynx. Discoidal vesicles bind to one side only of these ribbons (the anterior si...

At the cytopharynx the acidosomes come in contact with the carrier vesicles that are derived from early endosomes. These carrier vesicles bind to the microtubular ribbons as do the acidosomes. The car...

Transmission electron micrograph of Drosophila nephrocyte garland cell from ema[1] mutant: high magnification view. ema mutant garland cells are filled with very large electron-lucent alpha and electr...

Transmission electron micrograph of Drosophila nephrocyte garland cell. Wild-type garland cells display extensive tubulo-vesicular and vacuolar profiles of endosomal compartments, including electron-l...

High resolution image of an early endosome in planar view that contains HRP-reaction product. This cell was exposed to HRP for 6 min. and then fixed. This early endosome had two small coated evaginati...
