The dynamic and structural properties of axonemal tubulins support the high length stability of cilia

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
The axoneme in cilia and flagella has exceptionally high stability despite being composed of microtubules that are known to be highly dynamic. Here authors extract tubulin from different components of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii axonemes and characterize ...

Sequence and expression analysis of potential spermatogenesis‐specific gene cognates in the Caribbean fruit fly, Anastrepha suspensa

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The sterile insect technique (SIT) is a highly effective biologically‐based method for the suppression of many insect pest populations. SIT efficacy could be improved by methods of male sterilization that avoid the use of irradiation that can result in diminished fitness and mating competitiveness.

Mitochondrial fusion in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii zygotes

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cell Biology, 2013
Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that were found to fuse and divide in many different cell types. Mitochondrial fusion plays important roles in maintenance of respiratory capacity, dissipation of metabolic energy, and inheritance of mitochondrial DNA.

Key metabolites secreted by Chlorella vulgaris alleviate salt stress in soybean seedlings

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Chlorella vulgaris secretes exosome‐derived linolenic acid and inosine, which alleviate salt stress and enhance salt tolerance in soybean seedlings by activating stress‐responsive signaling networks. ABSTRACT Soil salinization is a major abiotic stress factor that reduces soybean production.

Insertional Mutagenesis of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2015
The unicellular microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (C. reinhardtii) has been used as a reference model for numerous fields of research. Principle research areas are eukaryotic flagellar structure and function, basal bodies (centrioles), cell-cell ...

Comparative analysis of canonical and noncanonical rhodopsins in Amphidinium carterae and Karlodinium veneficum

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Rhodopsins are ancient and versatile light‐sensitive proteins, widely distributed across microbial life. In dinoflagellates, however, their diversity and function remain poorly understood, owing to the lineage's extreme genomic divergence. Here, we surveyed the rhodopsin complements of two dinoflagellates, Amphidinium carterae and Karlodinium ...

Cryopreservation Protocol for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2016
Cryopreservation is commonly used for storing viable cells, tissues, organs or organisms at ultralow temperatures, and usually involves immersion in liquid nitrogen at -196 °C. Here we provide a detailed cryopreservation protocol for C. reinhardtii based

Trans-splicing mutants of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

open access: yesMolecular and General Genetics MGG, 1990
In Chlamydomonas reinhardtii the three exons of the psaA gene are widely scattered on the chloroplast genome: exons 1 and 2 are in opposite orientations and distant from each other and from exon 3. The mature mRNA, encoding a core polypeptide of photosystem I, is thus probably assembled from separate precursors by splicing in trans.

The unicellular green microalga Botryosphaerella sudetica links plant‐like light protection with an algal lifestyle

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ) mechanisms fine‐tune light utilisation in the photosynthetic antenna, for example, in response to excess light, to prevent photodamage. NPQ comprises distinct mechanisms, all contributing to photoprotection but acting on different time scales.
