Roles of end‐binding 1 protein and gamma‐tubulin small complex in cytokinesis and flagella formation of Giardia lamblia

MicrobiologyOpen, 2019
Giardia lamblia is a unicellular organism with two nuclei, a median body, eight flagella, and an adhesive disk. γ‐Tubulin is a microtubule (MT)‐nucleating protein that functions in the γ‐tubulin small complex (γ‐TuSC) in budding yeast.
