[Presence of microtubular and filamentous structures in frequent association with ribosomal crystals].
The contact of tubular bodies and cytofilaments with ribosome microcrystals from chick embryos incubated at 5 degrees C, was investigated by negative staining. It is revealed that for a good observation the time of fixation in glutaraldehyde was a critical point. It is suggested that tubular bodies and cytofilaments are engaged in the transport of ribosomes and ribosome tetramers.
