| In ruptured cells where the intact CV is still able to fuse with the plasma membrane to bring on systole, it is clearly evident that the CV membrane next to the ribbons of microtubules (mt) has been transformed into tubules that remain closely bound to the microtubules. The CV pore is visible in this ruptured cell. EM taken on 8/8/96 by R. Allen with Zeiss 10A TEM. Neg. 12,000X. Bar = 0.5µm. Published in Int. Rev. Cytol. 215:351-394, 2002. |
