These sperm progress forward rapidly as a result of the propagation of helicoidal waves distally along the flagellum. Their flagellar beat frequencies are high, 93 Hz at 21\u00b0C, and they roll at a frequency of about 19 Hz. Eel sperm could be demembranated with Nonidet P\u201040 and reactivated with MgATP<jats:sup>2\u2212<\/jats:sup> in 0.22 M K acetate at pH 8.1. The reactivated motility closely resembles that of the live sperm, with a beat frequency of 69 Hz, but the demembranated flagella are unusually fragile, and commonly disintegrate by a combination of splitting, coiling, and sliding within a few minutes. Little reactivation is obtained if acetate is replaced by Cl<jats:sup>\u2212<\/jats:sup> in the reactivating medium. The Michaelis constant for beat frequency (0.2 mM) is similar to that obtained for several \u201c9+2\u201d flagella. These sperm, however, appear to lack the mechanism by which Ca<jats:sup>2+<\/jats:sup> regulates waveform. Our results indicate that eel sperm flagella, which at rest are straight, are induced to bend helicoidally by ATP, as the result of sliding between tubules that is blocked at both the base and tip of the organelle. The flagellar waveform consists of a series of planar bends separated by short regions of right\u2010handed twist, which give it an overall left\u2010handed helicoidal form.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/cm.970050406","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,2,24]],"date-time":"2005-02-24T04:19:38Z","timestamp":1109218778000},"page":"333-350","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":98,"title":["Live and reactivated motility in the 9 + 0 flagellum of Anguilla sperm"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"5","author":[{"given":"Barbara H.","family":"Gibbons","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"B.","family":"Baccetti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"I.
