Description
Cytopharyngeal basket in tangential section is composed of a complex of microtubular rods. The lumen of the basket contains many vesicles called cytopharyngeal vesicles. They may provide membrane for the nascent food vacuole, lysosomal and/or lytic enzymes, or all of these. Another role may be to provide vacuolar type ATPases (proton pumps) to the nascent food vacuole. TEM taken on 3/13/69 by R. Allen with Philips 300 operating at 60kV. Neg. 3,570X. Bar = 2µm.
