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 cross section of a Coleps cilium showing the axoneme consisting of 9 doublet and 2 central microtubules. Doublets have a complete A subfiber and an attached B subfiber. Two dynein ar...

A high resolution image of a longitudinal microtubular ribbon sandwiched between the alveoli and the epiplasm in the crest of the pellicular ridge. A parasomal sac, the distal end of basal body, the p...

A view of the locomotor ciliature of Conchophthirus. This includes the nature of the cell membrane and axoneme. The negative magnification is 22,000X. The raw film was scanned with an Epson Perfection...

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...

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...

A portion of an isolated cilium exposing two rows of outer dynein arms arising from subfiber A of each doublet. The heavy chains of the dynein complex are linked to the microtubule by stems that can b...

A high resolution image that shows a dikinetid which is set in a shallow basin in the cell surface. The pair of basal bodies have a proximal cartwheel and a dense septum (not found in most bbs) just d...

A high resolution cross section showing only one basal body in two different dikinetids. Cross sections of overlapping microtubular ribbons arising from the dikinetids are seen in the ridges next to t...
