Principles of Intracellular Signaling in Ciliated Protozoa : A Brief Outline
Ciliates have available most of the intracellular signaling mechanisms known from metazoans. Long-range signals are represented by firmly installed microtubules serving as gliding rails aiming at specific targets. Many components are distinctly arranged to guarantee locally restricted effects. Short-range signals include Ca, provided from different sources, and proteins for membrane recognition...
متن کاملPremature termination codons in modern human genomes
The considerable range of genetic variation in human populations may partly reflect distinctive processes of adaptation to variable environmental conditions. However, the adaptive genomic signatures remain to be completely elucidated. This research explores candidate loci under selection at the population level by characterizing recently arisen premature termination codons (PTCs), some of which...
متن کاملOmasal ciliated protozoa in cattle, bison, and sheep.
Omasal contents were collected from slaughtered cattle (n = 54), bison (n = 15), and sheep (n = 40) to determine numbers and generic distribution of ciliated protozoa. Total protozoan numbers were significantly lower in omasal contents than in ruminal contents of all three species, but the percent composition of all protozoan genera was similar between omasal and ruminal populations. The highes...
متن کاملThe nucleotide sequences of 5S rRNAs from three ciliated protozoa.
The nucleotide sequences of 5S rRNAs from three ciliated protozoa, Paramecium tetraurelia, Tetrahymena thermophila and Blepharisma japonicum have been determined. All of them are 120 nucleotides long and the sequence of probable tRNA binding site of position 41-44 is GAAC which is characteristic of the plant 5S rRNAs. The sequence similarity percents are 87% (Paramecium/Tetrahymena), 86% (Param...
متن کاملAn Improved Silver Carbonate Impregnation for Marine Ciliated Protozoa
An improved silver carbonate impregnation method for marine ciliates is described. Compared to conventional methods, the new method of fixing and staining is easy to learn and yields easily reproducible results. Structures that are impregnated with silver carbonate such as nuclear apparatus, infraciliature as well as cortical and cytoplasmic microtubules and even contractile vacuole pore are st...
