Non-Mendelian Mutation in Paramecium tetraurelia
The Paramecium tetraurelia mutant called d48 has a complete copy of the A surface protein gene in its micronuclei, but lacks the A gene in the macronucleus. Previous experiments have shown that microinjection of a plasmid containing the entire A gene or a large portion of the gene into the macronucleus of d48 rescued the cell line after formation of a new macronucleus (autogamy). Here we show t...
متن کاملSterol synergism in yeast.
Sterol synergism as previously observed [Dahl, C.E., Dahl, J.S. & Bloch, K. (1980) Biochemistry 19, 1462-1467] and defined as a greater-than-additive growth response to pairs of sterols by Mycoplasma capricolum [Dahl, J.S., Dahl, C.E. & Bloch, K. (1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 87-91] is now demonstrated in the yeast mutant GL7, which is auxotrophic for sterol and unsaturated fatty acid. Mutant cell...
متن کاملOrganization of ribosomal genes in Paramecium tetraurelia
The macronuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA) of the ciliated protozoan Paramecium tetraurelia (stock 51) was analyzed by digestion with restriction endonucleases. The fragments which contained ribosomal RNA (rRNA) coding sequences and spacer sequences were identified. The spacer sequences exhibited some heterogeneity in size. The genes coding for 5.8S RNA, but not for 5S RNA, are linked to the 17S and...
متن کاملBioconvection and front formation of Paramecium tetraurelia.
We have investigated the bioconvection of Paramecium tetraurelia in high-density suspensions made by centrifugal concentration. When a suspension is kept at rest in a Hele-Shaw cell, a crowded front of paramecia is formed in the vicinity of the bottom and it propagates gradually toward the water-air interface. Fluid convection occurs under this front, and it is driven persistently by the upward...
متن کاملGlycophosphatidylinositol-anchored proteins in Paramecium tetraurelia: possible role in chemoresponse.
We have begun to characterize the glycophosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins of the Paramecium tetraurelia cell body surface where receptors and binding sites for attractant stimuli are found. We demonstrate here (i) that inositol-specific exogenous phospholipase C (PLC) treatment of the cell body membranes (pellicles) removes proteins with GPI anchors, (ii) that, as in P. primaurelia, t...
