bioRxiv
. 2023 Jan;
PMID: 36711791
Cilia are essential organelles that protrude from the cell body. Cilia are made of a microtubule-based structure called the axoneme. In most types of cilia, the ciliary tip is distinct...

Eukaryot Cell
. 2008 Jul;
7(8):1373-86.
PMID: 18586950
We describe phylogenetic and functional studies of three septins in the free-living ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila. Both deletion and overproduction of septins led to vacuolization of mitochondria, destabilization of the nuclear...

J Eukaryot Microbiol
. 2001 Jun;
48(3):332-7.
PMID: 11411842
The parasitic ciliate Ichthyophthirius multifiliis has abundant surface membrane proteins (i-antigens) that when clustered, trigger rapid, premature exit from the host. Similar antigens are present in free-living ciliates and are...

Gaertig J, Cole E
J Eukaryot Microbiol
. 2000 Dec;
47(6):590-6.
PMID: 11128713
Vegetative cells were subjected to electrofusion and the resulting heteropolar doublets were then mated to normal single cells and followed throughout conjugation using cytological and genetic techniques. The unique cyto-geometry...

J Eukaryot Microbiol
. 2000 Jun;
47(3):185-90.
PMID: 10847334
Thanks to recent technological advances, the ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila has emerged as an attractive model organism for studies on the assembly of microtubular organelles in a single cell. Tetrahymena assembles...

J Cell Biol
. 2000 Jun;
149(5):1097-106.
PMID: 10831613
We analyzed the role of tubulin polyglycylation in Tetrahymena thermophila using in vivo mutagenesis and immunochemical analysis with modification-specific antibodies. Three and five polyglycylation sites were identified at glutamic acids...

Cell Biol Int
. 2000 Apr;
23(12):841-8.
PMID: 10772758
The mechanism responsible for final cell separation at the end of cytokinesis is currently unknown. Knockout strains of the ciliate, Tetrahymena thermophila lacking the kinesin-II homologous molecular motors, Kin1p and...

Mol Biol Cell
. 1999 Oct;
10(10):3081-96.
PMID: 10512852
We cloned two genes, KIN1 and KIN2, encoding kinesin-II homologues from the ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila and constructed strains lacking either KIN1 or KIN2 or both genes. Cells with a single...
