High resolution image of the contractile vacuole in diastole (filling phase). Decorated spongiome surrounds the CV. The macronucleus, micronucleus, cytopharynx, and basal bodies of perioral membranell...

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...

Image of a dikinetid of Euplotes shows the transverse microtubular ribbon as well as a postciliary ribbon extending from the posterior basal body. Vesicles containing electron opaque bodies are typica...

Mouse tracheal epithelia cells (MTEC) were grown at air-liquid interface to induce differentiation, centriole amplification and ciliogenesis. Cells were fixed with ice-cold methanol for 10 min. Sample...

High resolution view of an early endosome with at least two coated evaginations showing, lies next to the proximal end of a fractured basal body. Other clathrin cages may indicate other evaginations f...

An image of the base of a dikinetid deeper in the cell. A postciliary ribbon and other microtubules fan out from it's basal bodies. TEM taken on 6/3/69 by R. Allen with Philips 300 operating at 60kV. ...

A high resolution image of a dikinetid in cross section near its proximal end. A postciliary ribbon and a transverse ribbon are seen. A short kinetodesmal fiber buds from the side of the kinetid. Coat...

High resolution image of longitudinal section of somatic cilia showing the axoneme, basal body, and attached fibrous and microtubular elements. Adjacent digestive vacuoles and cortical cytoplasm evide...

A high resolution micrograph showing the striated kinetodesmal fiber extending to the pellicle from the basal body where it terminates against the epiplasm. A bundle of microtubules extends into the c...

A view of the cortex showing early endosomes are often cup shaped and can have several coated evaginations arising from the rim of the cup. TEM taken on 8/10/65 by R. Allen with RCA EMU3F operating at...
