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

Transcriptome analysis of the model protozoan, Tetrahymena thermophila, using Deep RNA sequencing. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena thermophila is a well-studied single-celled eukaryote model organism for cellular and molecular biology. However, the lack of extensive T.

Constitutive Secretion in Tetrahymena thermophila [PDF]
ABSTRACT The growth, survival, and life cycle progression of the freshwater ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena thermophila are responsive to protein signals thought to be released by constitutive secretion. In addition to providing insights about ciliate communication, studies of constitutive secretion are of ...

The phenotypic and demographic response to the combination of copper and thermal stressors strongly varies within the ciliate species, Tetrahymena thermophila. [PDF]
The combined effects of copper and temperature induced unexpected responses across the species, Tetrahymena thermophila. Copper had harmful effects on demography; however, its accumulation mitigated these effects. Temperature modulated the response of strains.

Multifunctional Acyltransferases from Tetrahymena thermophila [PDF]
AbstractMultifunctional acyltransferases are able to catalyze the esterification of various acyl‐acceptors with activated fatty acids. Here we describe the identification of four proteins from Tetrahymena thermophila that share certain properties with mammalian acyltransferases regarding their predicted transmembrane structure, their molecular mass and

The mitochondrial genome of Tetrahymena rostrata
Tetrahymena rostrata is a ciliated protist which can parasitize the gray field slug, Deroceras reticulatum. Here, we report the sequence of the mitochondrial genome (mt genome) of a strain of T. rostrata that was isolated from the egg of D.

Adolescence in Tetrahymena thermophila. [PDF]
The development of sexual maturity in Tetrahymena thermophila has been shown to include an intermediate stage, adolescence, during which cells are capable of mating with mature cells but not other adolescent cells. When the progeny of successfully mated cells are grown logarithmically and tested frequently for the ability to mate, they are unable to ...

Nucleus-specific linker histones Hho1 and Mlh1 form distinct protein interactions during growth, starvation and development in Tetrahymena thermophila [PDF]
Chromatin organization influences most aspects of gene expression regulation. The linker histone H1, along with the core histones, is a key component of eukaryotic chromatin.
