Calculating mean and Gaussian curvature along mesh. (a) Mean curvature (H) and (c) Gaussian curvature (K) are calculated for each vertex along the mesh for a control MEF cell and displayed here as heat maps. Each panel is a 90° rotation about the horizontal axis. The average (b) H and (d) K is calculated over a 100-nm-wide window that slides along the ciliary axis in 20 nm steps. (Inset figures) Yellow lines indicate the measured ciliary axis; blue points are the vertices of the mesh. Reporting is mean ± SEM. Scale bars, 0.5 μm. To see this figure in color, go online.
