How Do Cilia and Flagella Move?
xvivo.com/exam...
The XVIVO team collaborated on a project with Dr. Daniela Nicastro, Associate Professor at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center. Dr. Nicastro and her research colleagues had completed some complex and ground-breaking research into how cilia and flagella generate their whip-like motion, and they asked XVIVO to help them visualize the results.
Dr. Nicastro’s group used a novel technique to visualize the molecular machines inside flagella to better understand how they work and, in the process, they confirmed a previously unproven hypothesis. Their research showed that flagella get their whip-like motion by a coordinated activation of motor proteins on one side of the flagella and inhibition of motor proteins on the opposing side.
XVIVO was tasked with taking the research results and creating a 3D animation that helped viewers better appreciate how the motor proteins in flagella work. The final animation steps through the process of flagellar beating by diving into the flagella structure and bringing the research to life.

The caption should be "Movement mechanism of flagella", yes Cilia and Flagella have similar internal structure but they differ in their pattern of movement.

You are correct regarding their different movement patterns. This video aims to introduce the Switch-inhibition mechanism shared by cilia and flagella with 9+2 axonemes for beating generation.
the animation is so much better than a verbal approach to understanding this sort of thing thanks
I'm very much overwhelmed to learn in the ways our older generations couldn't even imagine ❤️

Everything perfect but for a thing: This is the *eukaryotic* flagellum. The bacterial type is totally different. Otherwise, a wonderful, clear and insightful animation.

Appreciate your comment. But when eukaryotic flagella are mentioned together with cilia, the word "eukaryotic" is often omitted for conciseness.

@@jianfenglin7450Well, if conciseness is the key, then all stuff about dyneins and mechanisms so on has no place. However, I still believe it is the best animation available on the issue.

Do not know what is more amazing: the reality or tha capability of getting to know all this mechanisims by human scientists.
Wow, now I understand! Thanks. Especially the spatio/temporal coordination of Dynein movement is shown perfectly and correctly. There is one little mistake in it though, I think...(And I am only writing this in order to check my own understanding). The system would not work if all activated Dyneins "walked" synchronously, as shown in the animation. Because then the bent would immediately relax when they all let loose at once. Am I wright? Best wishes and thanks again for this beautiful and clear animation.
best explanatory video ever
This is a superb video and lucid explanation that gave me new insight into this process and will be useful in my textbook writing in anatomy and physiology. I love seeing this application of cryo-EM to deeper functional insight. However, the video is titled "Mechanism of Cilia," yet speaks only of flagella. It leaves me wondering how much of this translates to, or would be different in, cilia. This is in light of the difference between the corkscrew motion of a sperm tail propelling a mobile cell, versus the cilia on a stationary epithelial cell (as in the trachea or uterine tube) undergoing a stiff power stroke and limp recovery stroke.
That's great work... Thank you
Excellent !! plz come again and again with such awosome and appreciable stuff..
greatly animated....❤
professional job.! I give you a win medal... thanks for this high level formation..
Super teaching
This was very Informative and visually appealing!
Such a good video thank u sm!
Amazing
Me and my girlfriend will try the mechanism. Thanks!
Beautiful video, keep uploading such content 😊
It kinda moves like snakes...or electric eels. I like it, by the way, I want to see more of it. This is so cool
WHOAAAA u guys helped me SOOOOO muchhh
Excellent! More videos, please!

This is a truly bad-ass video!
Thanks I was wondering how was axoneme a part of flagella Great help
Awesome video. Thanks. But I am thinking the opposing side to side firing mechanism illustrated would cause side to side bending, not up and down movement? Correct me if I'm wrong. Still amazing graphics

Now, how does it know where it's going? It must have programing directing it to a target destination.

when u typed these letter, your actin and myosin doesnot know where o0r which way too fire, like that, their firing direction is dependant on other aspects of physiology( not brain per-se but chemotaxis or so

@@jeherulislam6903 The movement of sperm is directed by chemotaxis; a biochemical pathway responds to concentration gradients of chemicals released by egg cells. It takes these oocyte-released chemicals as input, and the reactions we see in this video are the outputs. Imagine a simple little robot built to move in the direction of a stimulus (like light); the same thing is happening here. Without the stimulus (chemoattractants), the sperm would presumably just move around in random directions.

Nice. But the colour change confused me a little.
how do atp's provide power, do they have to be there for each tiny, tiny, tiny action, or do they merely 'heat up' The general environment & allow chemistry to do it's thang. ( sic ) ?

And who created this apparent creator who should be even more complex? If you're gonna say he always existed you have to prove it, as there are way better explanations with concise and plentiful evidence to support evolution and to disprove intelligent design. The intelligent design is a classic example of argument from ignorance.
Amazing!!!
