Paramecium multimicronucleatum - Video of the Contractile Vacuole Complex. Measuring membrane tension of the in vitro CV. To measure the build up of tension by the CV membrane an in vitro CV surrounde...

The contractile vacuole of Coleps hirtus. The filled CV is continuous with tubules of the smooth spongiome. The tubular nature of mitochondrial cristae is particularly evident in this micrograph. Stan...

The cytoproct is the cell’s defecation site where spent digestive vacuoles fuse with the plasma membrane. In this cell the cytoproct is closed and forms a ridge along the posterior suture on the ven...

Acidosomes originate from the biosynthetic pathway that includes the ER, the Golgi stack and the trans-Golgi network (TGN). Flattened vesicles from the TGN round up into spherical vesicles and bind to...

Localization on the cell surface of Alexa Fluor-488-α factor (left, green in merge) and Abp1-RFP (center; red in merge). Within each box, α-factor spots first appear and are subsequently joined by A...

Localization of Alexa Fluor-594-α factor labeled endosomes (red; center) and Abp1-GFP labeled endocytic patches (green; left) in an arp3-D11A cell. Although the patches do not move off the plasma mem...

Time-lapse confocal experiment showing SNC80 (100 nM; a selective agonist)-induced receptor internalization in primary caudate putamen neurons isolated from Oprd1-EGFP/EGFP knockin mouse. All agonists...

Proximity of excitatory and inhibitory axon terminals adjacent to pyramidal cell bodies provides a putative basis for nonsynaptic interactions. Video sequence made up of 14 consecutive confocal micros...

High resolution micrograph that shows the pegs on the surface of the decorated tubules that are negatively stained by the uranyl acetate dissolved in the methylcellulose solution used to give support ...

This micrograph shows the pegs on the surface of the decorated tubules associated with the contractile vacuole that are negatively stained by the uranyl acetate dissolved in the methylcellulose soluti...
