Flagellar photoresponses of ptx1, a nonphototactic mutant of Chlamydomonas.

Cell motility and the cytoskeleton - 1 Jan 1997

Rüffer U, Nultsch W

Abstract excerpt

Phototaxis in wild-type Chlamydomonas cells is probably the result of four single photoresponses in the flagella, inverse in the cis (near the eyespot) and in the trans flagellum and also inverse by step-up (increase of) and step-down (decrease of) light stimulation as experienced by the eyespot during rotation of the cell [Rüffer and Nultsch, 1991: Cell Motil. Cytoskeleton 18:269-278]. Two inverse sets of the...
