Whole cell reconstructions of Leishmania mexicana through the cell cycle.
The unicellular parasite Leishmania has a precisely defined cell architecture that is inherited by each subsequent generation, requiring a highly coordinated pattern of duplication and segregation of organelles and cytoskeletal structures. A framework of

Mutation of the Ser18 phosphorylation site on the sole Saccharomyces cerevisiae UCS protein, She4, can compromise high-temperature survival. [PDF]
Folding of the myosin head often requires the joint actions of Hsp90 and a dedicated UNC45, Cro1, She4 (UCS) domain-containing cochaperone protein. Relatively weak sequence conservation exists between the single UCS protein of simple eukaryotes (She4 in ...

THE CONTRACTILE VACUOLE IN AMOEBA PROTEUS (LEIDY)
1. The contractile vacuole in Amoeba proteus contains at the surface a well differentiated membrane about 0.5µ thick. Adjoining this membrane on the outside there is usually a layer of substance in which numerous beta granules (Metcalf's "excretory granules") are imbedded. This layer is more viscous and heavier than the adjoining cytoplasm.
