Example sentences for: ciliates
How can you use “ciliates” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
We predict that a loose complex will be found in ciliates between telomerase and a cbs-directed binder-cutter activity.
While the allele composition of the 81-locus is identical in each pair of karyonides, the karyonides are not otherwise genetically identical (unlike sister karyonides in many ciliates; e.g. , see [ 59 ] ), but are independently derived, so that the backgrounds differ between karyonides, which might explain these slight variations.
The in vitro properties of telomerase are consistent with its known role in creation of MAC telomeres in Tetrahymena [ 41 ] , as well as, presumably, in all other ciliates [ 9 ] . Telomerases from exconjugants of Tetrahymena and Euplotes have been extensively studied in vitro . The E. crassus enzyme can only act on oligomers that pair with telomerase template RNA at their 3' terminus, unless assisted by a dissociable factor (chromosome healing factor), which contributes extra mass to the enzyme in exconjugants [ 42 ] . Telomerase, assisted by this factor, still requires a block of dGs or telomere repeats internal to the 3' primer end [ 43 ] . In contrast, the Tetrahymena exconjugant enzyme can add to a primer completely devoid of telomere repeats in special reaction conditions, and shows no evidence of increased mass beyond that of the vegetative enzyme [ 44 ] .
Analogous phenomena have been described in other ciliates [ 28 29 30 31 ] .
Analogous developmental strategies have evolved several times outside the ciliates, scattered across phyla [ 15 19 ] ; thus, mammalian immunity depends on irreversible somatic genome alterations [ 20 ] . Initially the MAC anlage's chromosomes are endo-reduplicated, evidenced by visible polyteny in a variety of ciliates.
