An individual cirrus of Euplotes with 91 cilia/basal body complexes. The transition from basal body to cilium can be followed from right to left in each row. Small vesicles, many containing electron o...

Transmission electron micrograph of gastric HKAtpase alpha KO mouse ciliated possible brush cell in the greater curvature of the stomach band on cilia reminiscent of cilia in respiratory epithelium an...

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...

In this image a portion of the true surface of the plasma membrane is exposed where the culture medium has been etched away. The IMPs of the plates can also be viewed less distinctly on the true surfa...

High resolution image of cilia and cytopharyngeal vesicles containing a flocculent content of unknown composition which lie next to the cytopharynx and between the buccal cavity and what may be the n...

A high resolution image of an individual cirrus of Euplotes with 91 cilia/basal body complexes. The transition from basal body to cilium can be followed from right to left in each row. Small vesicles,...

An image of the transition from basal bodies to cilia within a portion of one of the oral membranelles of Euplotes. Parasomal sacs occur between the rows of basal bodies although these endocytic ports...

The proximal ends of the basal bodies of a cirrus are embedded in a perforated plate of electron opaque material. Microtubules arise from this opaque material. A secondary fretwork of connections bind...

An image of the buccal cavity of Halteria has oral ciliature on its left side and a paroral kinety consisting of only one row of basal bodies and cilia on its right side. A cytopharynx with microtubul...

An image of cilia and cytopharyngeal vesicles containing a flocculent content of unknown composition which lie next to the cytopharynx and between the buccal cavity and what may be the nascent food v...
