Polarized bundles of actin filaments within microvilli of fertilized sea urchin eggs
We report on the internal ultrastructure of long, finger-like microvilli which cover the surface of the fertilized sea urchin egg. Eggs were attached to polylysine-coated surfaces; their upper portions were sheared away with a stream of buffer which left behind only their plasma membranes and adjace...
