In situ structural analysis of the flagellum attachment zone in Trypanosoma brucei using cryo-scanning transmission electron tomography

The flagellum of Trypanosoma brucei is a 20 µm-long organelle responsible for locomotion and cell morphogenesis. The flagellum attachment zone (FAZ) is a multi-protein complex whose function is to attach the flagellum to the cell body but also to guide cytokinesis. Cryo-transmission electron microsc...
