The Hitchhiker's Guide to... Flagellar Tips
by Christoph
The same frontispiece twice within a few days at STC? No, not quite. It's not about Roberto's hitchhiking phage this time, or the flagellated bacterium, or the hitchhiking spore, but about the tip of the flagellum (black, left). Disclosure: already back in 2020, I talked with Alise, who created the image, and three other passionate science illustrators...

My #ThrowbackThursday #sciart continues!
Flagella origami - mixed media, 2016.
From the first year of #freelance #ScienceIllustration, I bring you the #StructuralBiology of bacterial #flagella filaments. This was commissioned as part of the branding for a flagella & type-3 secretion conference in #Japan.
I had to learn how to make an #origami pinwheel to do this - it took me ages. Then I realised the elaborate patterned paper I'd chosen was too wild, so I had to make the whole thing again!

I'm getting better at staining. This is a sample from the bottom of the jar stained with aqueous methylene blue. I think maybe I can see two #flagella coming off one of the cells in the middle.
There's also one of the tube things in the middle there. It's interesting that the tubes don't stain. That would suggest they're not negatively charged the way most #bacteria are.
I'm thinking that what I've been calling tubes might be what other people call "safety pins". Apparently that's what Bukholderia are supposed to look like.

Happy #FluorescentFriday folks! Because everything seems a little dark on the otherside, we are sharing some color-tastic eye-popping pics to kick off the week-end.... #cilia #flagella #MicroscopeMagic #TubulinCode

Pleasantine, this would be great - but: the group was somehow generated automatically - I can't edit the intro 🙁
So we have to keep on mentioning @cilia and adding the hashtags in our "toots". :happy:
