Direct evidence for a colchicine-induced impairment in the mobility of membrane components
Abstract
Freeze-etch electron microscopy was used to show that colchicine interacts with membranes of the ciliate protozoan Tetrahymena pyriformis. Colchicine impairs the temperature-induced translational and vertical mobility of the membrane-intercalating particles of the freeze-fractured alveolar membranes lying just below the plasma membranes.
