Structure of a cilium of the green alga Clamydomonas reinhardtii (tomographic segmentation): the cilium is covered by a protein layer (FMG 1). Underneath lies the inner glycocalyx and the ciliary ...

However, its exact structure was previously unknown. The research team has now mapped the structure ... directly enable adhesion to surfaces and transmit the force needed for gliding motility from ...

But virtually all other cells have a primary cilium. Likewise, for many years it was generally assumed that the entire phylum Nematoda, comprising roundworms, completely lacked cilia or flagella.

Cilium is a dynamic sun protection system, that can be transformed from a vertical sun protection system to a horizontal, open position raised above a window. This solution limits the overheating ...

In mature cells, the cilia are disassembled and go away completely. However, the centriole, the structure from which the cilium grows, remains docked on the surface of these mature cells.

However, its exact structure was previously unknown ... and transmit the force needed for gliding motility from inside the cilium, but instead form a protective layer that regulates the ...
