FIGURE 1

Immunofluorescence images and schematic representation of ciliate cilia and accessory structures. Immunofluorescence images of Paramecium tetaurelia (left) and Tetrahymena thermophila (middle) cells. The Paramecium tetaurelia cell (left) is stained for cilia (α-GT335, white; α-TAP952, red) and the Tetrahymena thermophila cell (middle) is stained for basal bodies (α-centrin, green) and cilia (α-GT335, red). Scale bar = 10 μm. The red box in the Tetrahymena image (middle) is represented schematically in the right image showing a top down view of basal body organization with associated accessory structures. CW, cartwheel; pcMT, post ciliary microtubules; TM, transverse microtubules; KF, Kinetodesmal Fiber.
