A grazing section through the cell’s surface shows segments of six rows of cilia running across the figure sectioned superfically at the top and deeper into the cell as one progresses down the figur...

The postoral fibers are also heavily labeled by anti-b-tubulin. The cell was lightly fixed, placed in metylcellulose and frozen in liquid nitrogen. Sections were produced at -100°C before thawing and...

High resolution view of the bundles of microtubules that arise from along the elaborately woven blanket of the filamentous reticulum that covers the ribbed wall of the right side of the buccal cavity....

A cross section of the probosis oral apparatus of Didinium showing the organization, distribution of toxicysts, and the ribbons of microtubules that support the ingestion of large prey. Further detail...

This image of a cortical monokinetid shows the basal body as well as postciliary and transverse microtubular ribbons. Slender endosomal vesicles accumulate near the bottom of a parasomal sac which is ...

The proximal end of the basal body is sometimes the origin of other single microtubules or bundles of microtubules that extend deeper into the cell’s endoplasm. These guide trichocysts, tip first, t...
