Recent studies have implicated the phosducin‐like protein‐2 (PHLP2) in regulation of CCT,
a chaperonin whose activity is essential for folding of tubulin and actin. However, the exact …

Tubulin synthesis and tubulin m RNA concentrations increase to variable extents during
ciliary regeneration in the ciliate Tetrahymena. Experiments described here were carried out …

The mipA gene of A. nidulans encodes a newly discovered member of the tubulin
superfamily of proteins, y-tubulin. In A. nidulans, y-tubulin is essential for nuclear division …

ABSTRACT γ-Tubulin, a component of spindle pole bodies in fungal cells and pericentriolar
material in vertebrate cells, is thought to play a role in the nucleation of microtubule growth …

Attempts were made to elucidate whether or not microtubules within cilia, oral apparatus and
macronuclei in Tetrahymena pyriformis include common proteins, by making use of …

Poly (A)-containing mRNA was isolated from division synchronized populations of the
ciliated protozoan, Tetrahymena pyriformis. The level of tubulin and actin mRNA at specific …

The ciliary axoneme is the minimal structure responsible for Ca2+-dependent modulation of
ciliary movement. We demonstrated that, in Tetrahymena ciliary axonemes, β-tubulin was …

We have isolated and sequenced two γ-tubulin (γ-Tub)-encoding macronuclear genes of the
ciliate Euplotes crassus (Ec), as well as their corresponding cDNAs. Our results reveal that …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the regulation of microtubules in Tetrahymena. A
combined approach, using both in vivo and in vitro studies, will probably be required to …

Detergent permeabilized Euplotes eurystomus (a fresh water hypotrichous ciliate) was
reacted with monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies specific for either detyrosinated or …
