Perspectives on the ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena thermophila.
In biology, scientific discoveries are often linked to technical innovations made possible by an inspired choice of model organism. Ciliate species, especially Tetrahymena thermophila, have had historically significant roles as uniquely enabling experimental systems. More importantly, as the chapters in this volume attest, ongoing efforts of the T. thermophila model organism community have crea...
متن کاملthe use of appropriate madm model for ranking the vendors of mci equipments using fuzzy approach
abstract nowadays, the science of decision making has been paid to more attention due to the complexity of the problems of suppliers selection. as known, one of the efficient tools in economic and human resources development is the extension of communication networks in developing countries. so, the proper selection of suppliers of tc equipments is of concern very much. in this study, a ...
15 صفحه اولTranscriptome Analysis of the Model Protozoan, Tetrahymena thermophila, Using Deep RNA Sequencing
BACKGROUND The ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena thermophila is a well-studied single-celled eukaryote model organism for cellular and molecular biology. However, the lack of extensive T. thermophila cDNA libraries or a large expressed sequence tag (EST) database limited the quality of the original genome annotation. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS This RNA-seq study describes the first deep sequ...
متن کاملTwo-dimensional gravitactic bioconvection in a protozoan (Tetrahymena pyriformis) culture.
Gravitactic bioconvective patterns created by Tetrahymena pyriformis in a Hele-Shaw apparatus were realized and compared with theoretical results. There were found to be two thresholds for bio-convection development: the first indicates the transition from the diffusion to the steady convection state; the second corresponds to the transition from the steady to the unsteady convection state. The...
متن کاملA NEW BIOLOGICAL SCREENING SYSTEM FOR LOCAL ANAESTHETICS BY INHIBITION MOBILITY OF TETRAHYMENA PYRIFORMIS
An alternative in vitro approach to drug screening has been the use of human cell cultures for antiviral agents and microbial cell cultures for the assessment of the carcinogenic potential of selected compounds. A number of protozoan species have been also used as drug screens for anti-protozoal agents. The ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena pyriformis species has been widely utilised as a dru...
