The length of eukaryotic cilia and flagella depends on the cell cycle-regulated assembly and disassembly of at least 9 doublet and 2 central microtubules, their associated proteins, and the surrounding membrane. In light-synchronized Chlamydomonas cells, flagella assembled to 10-14 microm in length
The flagella of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii protrude through the cell wall via short, tunnel-like openings that are lined with 11 nm X 500 nm fibers arranged in parallel array. These cylindrical collections of fibers presumably permit free movement of the flagella within the cell wall. In this report
