Quick-freeze, deep-etch visualization of the cytoskeleton beneath surface differentiations of intestinal epithelial cells

The cytoskeleton that supports microvilli in intestinal epithelial cells was visualized by the quick-freeze, deep-etch, rotary-replication technique (Heuser and Salpeter. 1979. J. Cell Biol. 82: 150). Before quick freezing, cells were exposed to detergents or broken open physically to clear away the...
