The Supreme Court ruled in June that the naval base on the tip of Cuba was not, as the government had contended, beyond the reach of United States constitutional law.
This element allows the transportation of water from the base to the tip of the system.
The degree of porosity increases from the base to the tip of the SiNWs (see Additional file 1: Figure S2d l), similar to that in previous studies [16, 19].
All three of these forms of flagellar locomotion consist of contraction waves that pass either from the base to the tip of the flagellum or in the reverse direction to produce forward or backward movement.
The length of the left forewing (from the base to the tip of the wing) was measured with a digital calliper to the nearest 0.01 mm.
The progressive rate of tapering from the base of the tail to the tip is comparable to that of a bullwhip from the grip to the tip.
Kif3a encodes a subunit of the kinesin-II motor that drives anterograde trafficking from the base to the tip of the cilium and Kif3a mutants do not generate cilia [3], [19], [20].
IFT proteins cooperate with IFT motors (kinesin and dynein) to drive macromolecules from the base to the tip of the cilium (anterograde transport) and from the tip of the cilium back to the cell body (retrograde transport).
The extent of migration (i.e., the distance from the cell column base to the tip of the outgrowth) was measured at defined positions with SPOT software (SPOT Imaging Solutions, a division of diagnostic instruments, Inc., Sterling Heights, MI, USA).
In this form of transport, complexes containing about 20 IFT proteins are moved from the base to the tip of the flagella, and are then recycled back towards the base.
