Averaged 96 nm Repeating Unit Within the Chlamydomonas flagellum

The averaged 96 nm repeating unit within the Chlamydomonas flagellum is shown. This average was generated from the tomogram shown in movie 8-1. The color code is: grey, doublet microtubule; light blue, outer dynein arms; red, inner dynein arms; blue, radial spokes; yellow, light and intermediate chain components of inner arm dynein f; green, dynein regulatory complex.
