Abstract excerpt
We have characterized ciliogenesis in a mutant Tetrahymena thermophila that both fails to regain motility following deciliation and that fails to complete cytokinesis. Scanning electron microscopic (SEM) observations revealed that starved deciliated cells regenerated fewer, shorter cilia at the restrictive temperature than similarly treated cells incubated at the permissive temperature. Transmission electron...
