Electron micrograph of an unmyelinated nerve Schwann cell from a rat tongue. Image made available by James D. Jamieson and the Department of Cell Biology, Yale University School of Medicine.

Transmission electron micrograph of nerve cell terminals on medulla dendrites. The body of the dendrite (lower part of image) contains aligned microtubules (neurotubule). Synapses are seem on the den...

Shown is a a confocal microscope image of a human gingival fibroblast in culture. Interphase microtubules (green) are labeled with alpha/beta tubulin primary antibodies. FITC conjugated secondary anti...

Confocal microscope image of a portion of a human 5-day embryo illustrating the trophoblastic shell. Interphase microtubules (green) are labeled with alpha/beta tubulin primary antibodies. FITC conjug...

Microtubules in a control PtK1 cell at the edge of an epithelial cell island. Few pioneer microtubules rapidly grow into forming protrusions. The cell was microinjected with X-rhodamine-conjugated tub...

Microtubule fragments exhibiting net treadmilling in a Rac1(Q61L)-expressing PtK1 cell. Microtubule plus ends undergo dynamic instability while their minus ends depolymerize, resulting in net treadmil...

The movie shows the rhythmic movement of the termite flagellate Pyrsonympha, a symbiont that lives in the hindgut. The motile structure is a complex of ~2,000 aligned microtubules, the axostyle which ...

Freeze substituted Lilium pollen tube immunolabeled for microtubules (blue>magenta) and imaged using laser scanning confocal microscopy. Shown is a projection of x-z slices revealing the cortical dist...
