To start the animations click on the images, please!
Note that most immunoreactivity is seen on recurrent processes of the cell and not in vicinity of the ribbons!

A. motion pictures showing reconstructed structures turning 360° immunolabelling in red
Colors:
red = immunolabelling
blue = cell surface
gray = cell interior
green = synaptic ribbons

(file size: 14.4 MB!)

B. motion pictures showing reconstructed structures turning 360° immunolabelling in orange
The left animation shows immunolabelling and ribbons in the cone terminal, which is omitted in the right motion picture
Colors:
orange = immunolabelling
blue = cell surface
gray = cell interior
green = synaptic ribbons

(file sizes: ~11,9 MB!)

for stereo animation
look in E, please

C. stereo animations of a cone synaptic terminal in blue

angular view

up and downside view
Colors:
orange = immunolabelling; blue = cell surface;
gray = cell interior; green = synaptic ribbons; (file sizes ~11.6 MB!)

D. stereo motion pictures of a cone synaptic terminal in gray

angular view


up and downside view
Colors:
orange = immunolabelling; light gray = cell surface;
dark gray = cell interior; green = synaptic ribbons; (file sizes 11.3 - 11.6 MB!)

E. stereo animation of synaptic ribbons and immunolabelling only
Colors:
orange = immunolabelling;
green = synaptic ribbons

(file size: 14.4 MB!)
