Iron economy in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]
While research on iron nutrition in plants has largely focused on iron-uptake pathways, photosynthetic microbes such as the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii provide excellent experimental systems for understanding iron metabolism at the ...

Phototaxis Assay for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]
Phototaxis is a behavior in which organisms move toward or away from the light source (positive or negative phototaxis, respectively). It is crucial for phototrophic microorganisms to inhabit under proper light conditions for phototaxis.

Chemoresponses of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]
Cells of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii have been found to respond to chemicals in two ways: chemokinesis and chemotaxis. Several amino acids, fatty acids, and inorganic salts can stimulate these responses.

PHOTOTAXIS IN CHLAMYDOMONAS REINHARDTII [PDF]
Parameters which distinguish phototaxis from random motility in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii have been defined with quantitative assays. The phototactic responses in photosynthetic, mixotrophic, and heterotrophic cultures were highest during exponential growth and declined rapidly as the cultures entered stationary phase.

Phototaxis mutants of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]
A group of 31 mutants of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii with altered phototactic responses was isolated. Growth of all the mutants was normal and, with one exception, they had no gross morphological aberrations. One mutant produced supernumerary flagella.

Selenoprotein-Transgenic Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]
Selenium (Se) deficiency is associated with the occurrence of many diseases. However, excessive Se supplementation, especially with inorganic Se, can result in toxicity. Selenoproteins are the major forms of Se in vivo to exert its biological function. Expression of those selenoproteins, especially with the application of a newly developed system,

The basal bodies of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]
The unicellular green alga, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, is a biflagellated cell that can swim or glide. C. reinhardtii cells are amenable to genetic, biochemical, proteomic, and microscopic analysis of its basal bodies. The basal bodies contain triplet microtubules and a well-ordered transition zone.

Computer-Assisted Tracking of Chlamydomonas Species
The green algae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a model system for motility in unicellular organisms. Photo-, gravi-, and chemotaxis have previously been associated with C.
