Fig.2
Movie of fluorescence images of an Ax2 cell with an extending protrusion. Cells had been stained with RH-795 10 minutes before quinine application. This dye binds to contractile vacuole membranes with high affinity. Note the highly fluorescent patch in the leading edge of the protrusion. 0.62 sec/frame, field width 30 micrometres. |

Fig.6C
Movie of fluorescence images of an mhc-null cell showing expulsion of a contractile vacuole. The cell had been stained with RH-795 10 minutes before quinine application. A patch of fluorescence persists on the cell membrane at the site of expulsion of one of the contractile vacuoles. 0.72 sec/frame, field width 17 micrometres. |

Fig.12
Movie of a locomoting slug cell in the absence of quinine. Slugs migrating on agar were dissociated into single cells in phosphate buffer by repeated passage through a 25G needle, and plated on a coverslip in such a way that the buffer formed a thin film of a depth just enough to cover the cells. 1.0 sec/frame, field width 17 micrometres. |
