    Notes: The dynein ATPases are a family of motor enzymes that drive microtubule sliding in cilia and flagella and contribute to microtubule-based transport inside cells. the multi-dynein hypothesis makes two predictions: 1) Axonemes contain multiple dynein heavy chain (DHC) isoforms, each encoded by a different gene; 2) Each isoform performs a specific role in ciliary beating. We used PCR-based techniques to clone thirteen different DHC sequences from Tetrahymena genomic DNA. All thirteen genes appeared to be expressed in growing cells. Comparisons of the deduced amino acid sequences of the thirteen DHCs with other known DHCs suggested that we have cloned three outer arm DHCs. two cytoplasmic DHCs, and eight inner arm DHCs.

    Notes: Reticulomyxa filosa is a freshwater protist possessing fine granular, branching and anastomosing pseudopodia and therefore traditionally placed in the class Granuloreticulosea, order Athalamida, as a sister group to the order Foraminiferida. Recent studies have revealed remarkable similarities in pseudopodial motility and ultrastructure between R. filosa and foraminifera (e.g. Allogromia laticollaris), prompting us to conduct a molecular phylogenetic analysis of these seemingly disparate organisms. We sequenced the complete small-subunit of the ribosomal DNA of the cultured strain of R. filosa and compared it to the corresponding sequences of other protists including 12 species of foraminifera. We also sequenced and analyzed the actin coding genes from R. filosa and two species of foraminifera, Allogromia sp. and Ammonia sp. the analysis of both data sets clearly shows that R. filosa branches within the clade of foraminifera, suggesting that R. filosa is in fact a freshwater naked foraminiferan.

    Notes: We examined the nuclear behavior of mating Tetrahymena cells that had been mechanically disrupted at various times throughout conjugation. Disruption was achieved by agitating conjugating Tetrahymena in the presence of 0.1-3 mm glass beads. Two minutes of agitation with 1 mm beads yielded optimal pair disruption (70%) with high viability (92%). Disrupting pairs between 0-4.7 h after the initiation of mating produced mostly disrupted conjugants in which development was aborted. However, as many as 20% of these early disrupted conjugants completed development even without their mating partners. After 5 h the percentage of disrupted conjugants completing development increased dramatically, reaching 80% by 6.7 h. These results support a model suggesting that events associated with nuclear exchange and fusion 5 h into conjugation trigger a commitment to completion of the postzygotic developmental program. the early conjugants that completed development following disruption suggest that development can be sustained even in the absence of a mating partner. This represents a novel method of bringing the micronuclear genome into macronuclear expression with minimal cytoplasmic exchange between partners. We discuss these results in light of a model relating cortical and nuclear signaling events that reciprocally drive conjugal development.

    Notes: The random amplification of polymorphic DNA was used for easy, quick and sensitive assessment of genetic polymorphism within Phytomonas to discriminate isolates and determine genetic relationships within the genus. We examined 48 Phytomonas spp., 31 isolates from plants and 17 from insects, from different geographic regions. Topology of the dendrogram based on randomly amplified polymorphic DNA fingerprints segregated the Phytomonas spp. into 5 main clusters, despite the high genetic variability within this genus. Similar clustering could also be obtained by both visual and cross-hybridization analysis of randomly amplified synapomorphic DNA fragments. There was some concordance between the genetic relationship of isolates and their plant tissue tropism. Moreover, Phytomonas spp. from plants and insects were grouped according to geographic origin, thus revealing a complex structure of this taxon comprising several clusters of very closely related organisms.

    Notes: We have characterized a macronuclear gene of the ciliate protozoan Euplotes raikovi, which encodes an acidic ribosomal protein of the P protein family. This gene shows the typical organization of the hypotrich ciliate macronuclear “gene-sized” molecules with Euplotes telomeres at the ends. the longest open reading frame encodes a conceptual protein of 113 amino acid residues, with a molecular mass and pI value of 11.45 kDa and 3.97, respectively. By using sequence homology analysis, the protein was found to belong to the ribosomal P2 protein family and was named Er P2, where Er stands for Euplotes raikovi. These proteins, generally called A (acidic/alanine rich) proteins in prokaryotes and P (phosphorylated) proteins in eukaryotes, in which they are divided into P1 and P2 families, play a role in the elongation step of protein synthesis. Approximately 40% amino acid sequence identity was found between the cloned protein and other known protozoan ribosomal P2 proteins. Within its N-terminal half, this protein contains several potential kinase phosphorylation sites. Protein Er P2 differs markedly from the consensus P protein sequence in its C-terminal region, usually highly conserved among eukaryotic ribosomal P proteins, and shows similarities with the C-terminus of the archaebacterial ribosomal A proteins. to our knowledge, this E. raikovi protein represents the first demonstration of a ribosome-associated protein of the P2 family in a ciliate protozoan.

    Notes: The H1 histones of the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii were extracted from isolated nuclei, fractionated by high performance liquid chromatography, and analyzed by two-dimensional electrophoresis. peptide mapping, and N-terminal sequencing. Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of 5% perchloric acid extracts of isolated C. reinhardtii nuclei revealed two H1 proteins (H1A and H1B). Two-dimensional gel analysis did not reveal heterogeneity of either algal H1 protein, but did detect differences in the hydrophobic amino acid content of the C. reinhardtii H1A and H1B. Digestion of H1A and H1B with V8 protease revealed two distinctly different peptide maps. C. reinhardtii H1 peptide maps were not at all similar to those of Pisum H1, but algal and pea H2B peptide maps did show some peptides in common. Seventeen amino acid residues were obtained from C. reinhardtii H1A amino terminal sequencing, while the H1B N-terminus was blocked. A search of protein data bases revealed no sequence homology of the H1A N-terminus with any known protein. Chlamydomonas histones fractionated by high performance liquid chromatography revealed minor components (histone variants) for H2A and H2B. the amino acid composition of Chlamydomonas lysinerich histones was compared to those of various other unicellular algae.
