Abstract excerpt
Flagellar axonemes of sea urchin sperm display high frequency (200-400 Hz) vibration with nanometer scale amplitudes in the presence of ATP [Kamimura and Kamiya, 1992: J. Cell Biol. 116:1443-1454]. To investigate how various axonemal components affect the vibration, we examined vibration in wild-type and mutant axonemes of Chlamydomonas. At 1 mM ATP, wild-type axonemes underwent vibration at 100-650 Hz with...
