Figure 11.47Association of the endoplasmic reticulum with microtubules

Fluorescence microscopy of the endoplasmic reticulum (A) and microtubules (B) in an epithelial cell. The endoplasmic reticulum is stained with a fluorescent dye and microtubules with an antibody against tubulin. Note the close correlation between the endoplasmic reticulum and microtubules at the periphery of the cell. (From M. Terasaki, L. B. Chen and K. Fujiwara, 1986. J. Cell Biol. 103: 1557.)
