Fig. 4From: Combined nanometric and phylogenetic analysis of unique endocytic compartments in Giardia lamblia sheds light on the evolution of endocytosis in MetamonadaUptake of fluorescently labelled dextran in metamonada and discoba members: G. lamblia, S. vortens, S. salmonicida and T. foetus after 30 min. A G. lamblia cells present endocytic compartments spread in the cell periphery, unresolved by conventional light microscopy. On the other hand, B S. vortens, C S. salmonicida and D T. foetus present vesicular endocytic compartments. Scale bars: 5 μm (full cells) and 1 μm (ROI)Back to article page
