A view of the ER on which IMPs are organized into lines, arcs, and circles indicating organization of proteins within the ER membrane and possibly peripheral proteins attached to its cytosolic surface...

Tangential fractures through mature trichocysts. The planes in the paracrystalline stacks are exposed. The body is laced to the membrane but such associations must be severed when the trichocyst is di...

Quick-freeze deep-etch image of a cytosolic region where trichocysts are developing. Vesicles, even small ones, contain contents that are compacting into paracrystalline form. These vesicles seem to h...

Quick-freeze deep-etch image of a crystal. The contents of the crystal have condensed into paracrystalline planes that break into angular chunks when fractured. A portion of the P-fracture face of the...

Views of a striated band linked to the epiplasm on the ridge slopes and the intermembrane space between the plasma membrane and alveolus space inside the alveolus. TEM taken on 6/6/91 by C. Schroeder ...

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 of a quick-freeze deep-etch rotary shadowed replica of a parasomal sac from which a clathrin-coated preendosomal vesicle has pinched off. The typical clathrin cage structure is prese...

A 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 from the same e...

A clump of at least seven small clathrin cages that are probably connected to an early endosome (below the fracture plane). The morphology of these cages shows a tighter packing than the larger clathr...

Quick-freeze deep-etch of the contractile vacuole E-fracture face. This face like the collecting canal membrane is porous indicating that many IMPs have been removed from this leaflet during fracturin...
