The Distribution of Dna among Dividing Mitochondria of Tetrahymena Pyriformis
A squash technique was developed for log phase Tetrahymena pyriformis which permitted the resolution of over 100 individual mitochondria from a single cell. Mitochondria incorporated thymidine at all stages of the cell cycle, even when nuclear DNA synthesis was not occurring. During the stage of macronuclear DNA synthesis, however, there was a significant increase in the extent of mitochondrial...
متن کاملThe Fate of Mitochondria during Aging in Tetrahymena Pyriformis
During the growth cycle of Tetrahymena pyriformis the mitochondria undergo changes in position, number, and structure. Ciliates in the logarithmic growth phase possess elongated mitochondria which are aligned along the plasma membrane and are closely associated with the kinetosomes and kinetodesmata. Mitochondria appear to divide across the long axis at this time, resulting in two or more produ...
متن کاملRibosome Synthesis in Tetrahymena Pyriformis
The cellular site of synthesis of ribosomal RNA in Tetrahymena pyriformis was studied by analyzing the purified nuclear and cytoplasmic RNA from cells pulse labeled with uridine-(3)H. The results of studies using zonal centrifugation in sucrose density gradients show that the ribosomal RNA is synthesized in the nucleus as a large precursor molecule sedimenting at 35S. The 35S molecule undergoes...
متن کاملDistribution of tricarboxylic acid cycle enzymes and glyoxylate cycle enzymes between mitochondria and peroxisomes in Tetrahymena pyriformis.
Tetrahymena Pyriformis cells were grown axenically, harvested in the stationary phase of the cultures when the organism is glyconeogenetically active, homogenized, and fractionated either by isopycnic density gradient centrifugation in a sucrose gradient or by zonal differential sedimentation through a sucrose gradient. Protein and enzyme determinations carried out on the fractions led to the f...
متن کاملStudies of Membrane Formation in Tetrahymena Pyriformis
A method has been devised to fractionate cells of Tetrahymena pyriformis, yielding pure or highly enriched preparations of cilia, cilia-associated soluble material, pellicles, mitochondria, microsomes, and postmicrosomal supernatant. The method prevents the destructive action of lipolytic enzymes commonly associated with this organism. Analysis of the membrane lipids of these fractions reveals ...
