“…Freeze-fracture experiments provide unique views of membrane interiors. The technique is based on the fact that lipid bilayers separate easily upon mechanical shear at low tem-2170 MINIREVIEW perature (<-100'C) and pressure (<10-4 Pa) (29). Doublereplica methods allow examination of the complementarity (i.e., the match of particles on one face to complementary pits on the other) of the two membrane halves, a feature lost in knife-fractured replicas.…”

“…In our freeze-fracture preparations, the flagellar intramembrane ring particles are found on the P-fracture face. This suggests that the rings form associations with the cytoplasmic components of the flagellar base (36), even though the nature of the contacts is presently unclear. The ring particles could contact the periphery of the M/S ring (27.5-nm diameter [1Sa]), which may lie within or against the cytoplasmic membrane.…”
