Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2013 Research using ciliates revealed early examples of epigenetic phenomena and continues to provide novel findings. These protozoans maintain separate germline and somatic nuclei that carry transcriptionally silent and active genomes, respectively. Examining the differences in chromatin within distinct nuclei of Tetrahymena identified histone variants and

, 2022 Although many ciliates are free-living, more than 140 families of ciliates (Alveolata, Ciliophora) include symbiotic species of animals. Symbiosis, defined as an interaction between two species, is analyzed in this chapter to show a wide diversity of symbiotic systems in ciliates (epibiosis, commensalism, mutualism, and parasitism), providing some data

The Ciliated “Urns” of the Sipunculids [PDF]
Nature, 1908 IN the winter of 1871–2 I studied the richly corpusculated perivisceral fluid of Sipunculus nudus at Naples. I was with Anton Dohrn, who was making arrangements for the building of his celebrated laboratory. That remarkable marine zoologist Krohn, who in 1851 had described the ciliated “urns” (Topfchen) of the body-fluid of Sipunculus as parasites, was

Epigenetic inheritance in ciliates [PDF]
Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2009 2009 marks not only the 200th anniversary of Darwin's birth but also publication of the first scientific evolutionary theory, Lamarck's Philosophie Zoologique. While Lamarck embraced the notion of the inheritance of acquired characters, he did not invent it (Burkhardt, 1984).

Microbiological Reviews, 1994 Ciliates contain two types of nuclei: a micronucleus and a macronucleus. The micronucleus serves as the germ line nucleus but does not express its genes. The macronucleus provides the nuclear RNA for vegetative growth. Mating cells exchange haploid micronuclei, and a new macronucleus develops from a new diploid micronucleus.
