Transmission electron micrograph of an oblong vacuole from an untreated drs2∆ mutant cell. (50,000X). This image is part of a group of yeast vacuole images (CIL:40437-40448).

Transmission electron micrograph of a representative sertraline-treated drs2Δ mutant cell. DRS2 encodes an aminophospholipid flippase that regulates phospholipid asymmetry. A vacuole (left) contains ...

In defecation, when a spent vacuole has fused with the single membrane along the midline of the ridge the lips of the cytoproct split apart and form a wide gap. The membrane of the spent vacuole is no...

High resolution image of the collecting canal of the contractile vacuole complex. Normally the collecting canal is expanded when the CV is in systole. In this micrograph the collecting canal is empty ...

High resolution image of the CVC complex. The membrane along the collecting canal of ruptured cells shows that the excess smooth spongiome membrane forms a three-dimensional array similar to etiolated...

The contractile vacuole pore is encircled on its cytosolic surface with microtubules. Other microtubules arise from these encircling microtubules and extend far out into the cell where they provide st...

High resolution image of a longitudinal section through one of the radial arms of the contractile vacuole complex displaying two rows of openings from the smooth spongiome into the collecting canal. T...

The contractile vacuole pore is supported on its cytosolic side by a coil of microtubules and other microtubules extend from the pore to the CV membrane. The plasma membrane and CV membrane cover the ...

A contractile vacuole in systole. The CV has collapsed into vesicles and tubules. Three CV pores can be seen where the CV meets the pellicle. Smooth membrane cisterna surrounds some cytoplasm, possibl...

High resolution view of the E-face of the fractured collecting canal of the contractile vacuole showing its association with microtubular ribbons and with the smooth spongiome. The E-fracture face of ...
