Exploring the Histone Acetylation Cycle in the Protozoan Model Tetrahymena thermophila
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020 The eukaryotic histone acetylation cycle is composed of three classes of proteins, histone acetyltransferases (HATs) that add acetyl groups to lysine amino acids, bromodomain (BRD) containing proteins that are one of the most characterized of several ...

Differential Assembly of Catalytic Interactions within the Conserved Active Sites of Two Ribozymes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Molecular recognition is central to biology and a critical aspect of RNA function. Yet structured RNAs typically lack the preorganization needed for strong binding and precise positioning.

Modeling telomere shortening process
Quantitative Biology, Volume 13, Issue 1, March 2025.Abstract Cell senescence has attracted much attention in the long history of human beings, and telomere shortening (TS) is one of the main concerns in the study of cell senescence. To reveal the microscopic mechanism of TS process, we model it based on molecular stochastic process from the perspective of nonequilibrium statistical physics. We associate

Germ Line-Specific DNA Sequences are Present on All Five Micronuclear Chromosomes in \u3cem\u3eTetrahymena thermophila\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]
, 1983 The development of the macronucleus from the zygotic micronucleus in the ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena spp. involves the elimination of specific DNA sequences (M. C. Yao and M. Gorovsky, Chromosoma 48:1-18 1974).

Effectiveness of the enzyme cytosine deaminase in the free living ciliary organism Tetrahymena pyriformis (Ehrenberg, 1830) [PDF]
مجلة التربية والعلم, 2008 Cytosine deaminase (EC.3.5.4.1) activity and properties was determined in the extract of the free living ciliata Tetrahymena pyriformis grown in proteose peptone medium. The optimum conditions for the enzyme activity was also determined and it was found

A Conceptual DFT Approach Towards Developing New QSTR Models [PDF]
arXiv, 2007 Quantitative-structure-toxicity-relationship (QSTR) models are developed for predicting the toxicity (pIGC50) of 252 aliphatic compounds on Tetrahymena pyriformis. The single parameter models with a simple molecular descriptor, the number of atoms in the molecule, provide unbelievable results.
