Site-Specific Methylation of Adenine in the Nuclear Genome of a Eucaryote, \u3cem\u3eTetrahymena thermophila\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]
DNA in the polyploid macronucleus of the ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena thermophila contains the modified base N6-methyladenine. We identified two GATC sites which are methylated in most or all of the 45 copies of the macronuclear genome.

Validation of the micronucleus-centromere assay for biological dosimetry
The micronucleus assay is frequently used for purposes of biological dosimetry. Due to high interindividual variability in the spontaneous frequency of micronuclei, its sensitivity in the low dose region is poor.
