Eight-cell purple urchin embryo expressing three tandem GFPs fused to the ensconsin microtubule-binding domain (EMTB-3G; Faire et al., 1999). The embryo was treated with 20 µM nocodazole at time 00:...

Figures 417 (upper) and 418 (lower) from Chapter 16 (Cytoplasmic matrix and cytoskeleton) of 'The Cell, 2nd Ed.' by Don W. Fawcett M.D. A marginal bundle of microtubules is associated with the ellipti...

Figure 423 from Chapter 16 (Cytoplasmic matrix and cytoskeleton) of 'The Cell, 2nd Ed.' by Don W. Fawcett M.D. Longitudinal section of the manchette of a rodent spermatid. The microtubules end in a ...

A micrograph of Tetrahymena showing a transverse ribbon starting from the anterior right side of the proximal end of a basal body (out of section plane) and crossing under the pellicle to end under th...

Fluorescent micrograph of a Xenopus melanophore, showing microtubules (green), microtubule plus ends (red) and nucleus (blue). Honorable Mention, 2011 Olympus BioScapes Digital Imaging Competition®...

A high resolution image of a longitudinal section of an oral basal body and cilium with the attachment of a bundle of microtubular filaments and a rod that covers the proximal end of the basal body. A...

Dorsal root ganglion nerve cells stained to reveal the microtubules (green) and actin filaments (red). The axon shaft contains bundles of microtubules that give structural support and carry cargo (pro...

Transmission electron micrograph of nerve cells at the thigh muscle motor end plate. The motor end plate is the highly-excitable region of muscle fiber plasma membrane responsible for initiation of a...

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...

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...
