Axoneme defects in Lrguk^Kaos/Kaos mice.

, 2015
(A) The staining of testis sections with the axoneme marker, acetylated tubulin, indicated an almost complete absence of axoneme development in LrgukKaos/Kaos germ cells.

Beyond 9+0: noncanonical axoneme structures characterize sensory cilia from protists to humans.

, 2010
The intracellular amastigote stages of parasites such as Leishmania are often referred to as aflagellate. They do, however, possess a short axoneme of cryptic function. Here, our examination of the structure of this axoneme leads to a testable hypothesis

Mouse SPAG6L, a Key Cytoskeleton Modulator Essential for Male Germ Cell Development, Is Not Required for Sertoli Cell Function

Cells
Mouse sperm-associated antigen 6-like (SPAG6L) evolved from SPAG6, the mammalian ortholog of Chlamydomonas PF16, which is localized in the central apparatus of the motile cilia and is essential for ciliary motility.

Bending of the "9+2" axoneme analysed by the finite element method

, 2010
International audienceMany data demonstrate that the regulation of the bending polarity of the "9+2" axoneme is supported by the curvature itself, making the internal constraints central in this process, adjusting either the physical characteristics of ...

CEP162 is an axoneme-recognition protein promoting ciliary transition zone assembly at the cilia base [PDF]

, 2014
The transition zone (TZ) is a specialized compartment found at the base of cilia, adjacent to the centriole distal end, where axonemal microtubules (MTs) are heavily cross-linked to the surrounding membrane to form a barrier that gates the ciliary ...

Cilia Distal Domain: Diversity in Evolutionarily Conserved Structures

Cells, 2019
Eukaryotic cilia are microtubule-based organelles that protrude from the cell surface to fulfill sensory and motility functions. Their basic structure consists of an axoneme templated by a centriole/basal body.

Axoneme Structure from Motile Cilia [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2016
The axoneme is the main extracellular part of cilia and flagella in eukaryotes. It consists of a microtubule cytoskeleton, which normally comprises nine doublets. In motile cilia, dynein ATPase motor proteins generate sliding motions between adjacent microtubules, which are integrated into a well-orchestrated beating or rotational motion.

Conserved axoneme symmetry altered by a component β-tubulin

, 2000
Ninefold microtubule symmetry of the eukaryotic basal body and motile axoneme has been long established [1–3]. In Drosophila, these organelles contain distinct but similar β-tubulin isoforms [4–10]: basal bodies contain only β1-tubulin, and only β2 ...

Ultrastructures of spermatozoon tail in rice water weevil, Lissorhoptrus oryzophilus Kuschel (Coleoptera, Curculionidae)

浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2008
Ultrastructures of spermatozoon tail in the rice water weevil, Lissorhoptrus oryzophilus, were observed via transmission electron microscopy at selected sperm developmental stages with the aim at clarifying spermiogenesis in this weevil.

Glutamylated and glycylated tubulin isoforms in the aberrant sperm axoneme of the gall-midge fly, Asphondylia ruebsaameni

, 2004
The axonemal organization expressed in the sperm flagella of the cecidomyiid dipteran Asphondylia ruebsaameni is unconventional, being characterized by the presence of an exceedingly high number of microtubular doublets and by the absence of both the ...
