Immunoelectron microscopy of mammary gland tissue from lactating rats with the trans-Golgi network identified by immunogold labeling of TGN38, a transmembrane trans-golgi protein. Note that trans‐Go...

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...

An image of the nucleoli of the macronucleus. Nucleoli have a core of DNA that contains the genes that are transcribed into ribosomal RNA. Assembly of the ribosomal subunits from this processed RNA an...

Most wild type Tetrahymena have a macronucleus and a micronucleus. The micronucleus, seen here, is essentially nonfunctional during interphase. Its function is to replicate and pass a complete copy of...

An image of the cortex of Tetrahymena showing a longitudinal microtubular ribbon sandwiched between the alveoli and the epiplasm in the crest of the pellicular ridge. A parasomal sac, the distal end o...

A mAb, B25-1-3, was raised to antigen Q2 (arbitrary code) to the same set of membranes as mAb 132-F4-G6 labels. This mAb was more reactive on frozen sections. To tell the age of vacuoles, cells were e...

Monoclonal antibody, E30-2-1, was raised to antigen D6 that specifically labels acidosomes and DV-II. There was no label on the nascent vacuole membrane or ciliary membranes. This cell had been incuba...

Following discharge, remnant trichocyst membrane does not appear to directly enter the trans Golgi network for reuse in new trichocyst formation. Rather the HRP will be transferred to lysosomes (not s...

Receptor mediated endocytosis is a process in which extracellular molecules are taken into the cell via coated vesicles that pinch from the plasma membrane. In Paramecium the resulting vesicles fuse w...

Scanning electron microscope image of Strongylocentrotus drobachiensus [sea urchin] embryo at the late gastrula stage. Embryo was cut to reveal blastocoel cavity. The fertilization envelope dissolves ...
