IRREVERSIBLE MICROTUBULE DEPOLYMERIZATION ASSOCIATED WITH FREEZING INJURY IN ALLIUM CEPA ROOT TIP CELLS.

Author(s) : CARTER J. V., WICK S. M.

Type of article: Article

Summary

THE EFFECT OF FREEZING ON INTEGRITY OF MICROTUBULE (MT) ARRAYS IN ONION ROOT TIP CELLS WAS OBSERVED WITH INDIRECT IMMUNOFLUORESCENCE MICROSCOPY. THE PREPARATION TECHNIQUE GIVES CELLS RETAINING THEIR POLYHEDRAL SHAPE, WITH STRUCTURALLY STABILIZED AND ANTIGENICALLY RESPONSIVE MTS. LETHAL FREEZING CAUSES IRREVERSIBLE MT DEPOLYMERIZATION. COLD ACCLIMATION ALTERS MT SENSITIVITY TO COLD-INDUCED DEPOLYMERIZATION.
