Effects of the microalgae Chlamydomonas on gastrointestinal health
, 2020 The effects of consuming whole-cell biomass of the green algae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii on gastrointestinal health in mice and humans was examined. A 14-day murine model of acute colitis revealed significantly less weight loss in mice that received C ...

Multiomics resolution of molecular events during a day in the life of Chlamydomonas
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019 Significance Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is the premier reference organism for understanding unicellular green algae. Chlamydomonas is an important model for photosynthesis as well as fermentation and other anaerobic pathways under dark anoxic conditions ...

The Versatile Molecular Complex Component LC8 Promotes Several Distinct Steps of Flagellar Assembly [PDF]
, 2012 LC8 is present in various molecular complexes. However, its role in these complexes remains unclear. We discovered that although LC8 is a subunit of the radial spoke (RS) complex in Chlamydomonas flagella, it was undetectable in the RS precursor that is ...

Selenoprotein: Potential Player in Redox Regulation in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
Antioxidants, 2022 Selenium (Se) is an essential micro-element for many organisms, including Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, and is required in trace amounts. It is obtained from the 21st amino acid selenocysteine (Sec, U), genetically encoded by the UGA codon.
