The shape and turnover of photoreceptor membranes appears to depend on associated actin filaments. In dipterans, the photoreceptor membrane is microvillar. It is turned over by the addition of new membrane at the bases of the microvilli and by subsequent shedding, mostly from the distal ends. Each m
The localization of actin filaments in abalone sperm was investigated using 7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-l,3,-diazole-phallacidin (NBD-phallacidin) as a specific probe for actin filaments. Fluorescence staining of intact sperm revealed the localization of actin filaments in the axial rod. After the acrosome re
