Six domesticated PiggyBac transposases together carry out programmed DNA elimination in Paramecium

open access: yeseLife, 2018
The domestication of transposable elements has repeatedly occurred during evolution and domesticated transposases have often been implicated in programmed genome rearrangements, as remarkably illustrated in ciliates.

Biochemical studies of the excitable membrane of Paramecium tetraurelia. VII. Sterols and other neutral lipids of cells and cilia.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1983
The neutral lipid content of cells and cilia of Paramecium tetraurelia was determined as a function of growth stage and of growth medium composition. The major sterol(s) of deciliated cells and of cilia were the sterol provided in the growth medium (e.g.,

Near-atomic structure of a giant virus

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses are a group of viruses that infect many eukaryotic hosts. Here, the authors provide a 3.5 Å resolution icosahedrally-averaged capsid structure of Paramecium bursaria chlorella virus 1 and show how 1800 minor capsid ...

Genome-wide analysis of genetic and epigenetic control of programmed DNA deletion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
During the development of the somatic genome from the Paramecium germline genome the bulk of the copies of ∼45 000 unique, internal eliminated sequences (IESs) are deleted.
