Tetrahymena basal bodies [PDF]

open access: yesCilia, 2016
Tetrahymena thermophila is a ciliate with hundreds of cilia primarily used for cellular motility. These cells propel themselves by generating hydrodynamic forces through coordinated ciliary beating.

Experimental Evolution in Tetrahymena [PDF]

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Experimental evolution has provided novel insight into a wide array of biological processes. Species in the genus Tetrahymena are proving to be a highly useful system for studying a range of questions using experimental evolution.

Cardiolipin targets a dynamin-related protein to the nuclear membrane

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Dynamins are targeted to specific cellular membranes that they remodel via membrane fusion or fission. The molecular basis of conferring specificity to dynamins for their target membrane selection is not known.

Near-wall rheotaxis of the ciliate Tetrahymena induced by the kinesthetic sensing of cilia

open access: yesScience Advances, 2021
Kinesthetic sensing of cilia results in upstream motility for Tetrahymena pyriformis, a typical freshwater microorganism.

Tetrahymena: an alternative model host for evaluating virulence of Aeromonas strains. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
An easier assessment model would be helpful for high-throughput screening of Aeromonas virulence. The previous study indicated the potential of Tetrahymena as a permissive model to examine virulence of Aeromonas hydrophila.

Three-dimensional tracking of the ciliate Tetrahymena reveals the mechanism of ciliary stroke-driven helical swimming

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Helical swimming in free-space is a common behavior among microorganisms, such as ciliates that are covered with thousands hair-like motile cilia, and is thought to be essential for cells to orient directly to an external stimulus.

Gene network landscape of the ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Genome-wide expression data of gene microarrays can be used to infer gene networks. At a cellular level, a gene network provides a picture of the modules in which genes are densely connected, and of the hub genes, which are highly connected with other ...

Snf2 Proteins Are Required to Generate Gamete Pronuclei in Tetrahymena thermophila

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
During sexual reproduction/conjugation of the ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila, the germinal micronucleus undergoes meiosis resulting in four haploid micronuclei (hMICs).

Further insights into the phylogeny of facultative parasitic ciliates associated with tetrahymenosis (Ciliophora, Oligohymenophorea) based on multigene data

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
Tetrahymenosis, caused by about 10 Tetrahymena species, is an emerging problem inflicting a significant economic loss on the aquaculture industry worldwide.
