Anaerobic Ciliates and Their Methanogenic Endosymbionts
Many anaerobic ciliates possess hydrogenosomes, and consequently, they have the potential to host endosymbiotic methanogens. The endosymbiotic methanogens are vertically transmitted and even the cyst stages carry methanogens. Accordingly, the analysis of the SSU rRNA genes of ciliates and their methanogenic endosymbionts revealed that the endosymbionts are specific for their hosts and not ident...
متن کاملMultiple origins of anaerobic ciliates with hydrogenosomes within the radiation of aerobic ciliates.
Some ciliates live anaerobically and lack mitochondria, but possess hydrogenosomes: organelles that contain hydrogenase and produce hydrogen. The origin of hydrogenosomes has been explained by two competing hypotheses: (i) they are biochemically modified mitochondria; or (ii) they are derived from endosymbiotic association(s) of ciliates and anaerobic eubacteria that possessed the hydrogenosome...
متن کاملDetection of Ultraweak Photon Emission (UPE) from Cells as a Tool for Pathological Studies
Objective: It is well-known that all living cells emit ultra-weak photon emission (UPE), which is due to byproducts of chemical reactions in cell metabolisms. It has been shown that Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) in the cells enhances the UPE intensity. The magnitude of such UPE is extremely weak (i.e. a few to 103 photons/ (sec.cm2)), and the detection of such ultra-weak signals is hardly possi...
متن کاملEffects of temperature, sulfide, and food abundance on growth and feeding of anaerobic ciliates.
The trophic role of ciliates in anaerobic food webs has not been assessed experimentally. In order to obtain basic information necessary to interpret field situations, we studied the effects of temperature, sulfide concentration, and food abundance on the growth and feeding activities of two anaerobic ciliates, Plagiopyla nasuta and Metopus es. The growth rate of P. nasuta increased with temper...
متن کاملa study on thermodynamic models for simulation of 1,3 butadiene purification columns
attempts have been made to study the thermodynamic behavior of 1,3 butadiene purification columns with the aim of retrofitting those columns to more energy efficient separation schemes. 1,3 butadiene is purified in two columns in series through being separated from methyl acetylene and 1,2 butadiene in the first and second column respectively. comparisons have been made among different therm...
