  • Title: alpha-Tubulin of Histriculus cavicola (Ciliophora; Hypotrichea).
    Author: Pérez-Romero P, Villalobo E, Díaz-Ramos C, Calvo P, Santos-Rosa F, Torres A.
    Journal: Microbiologia; 1997 Mar; 13(1):57-66. PubMed ID: 9106182.
    Abstract:
    An alpha-tubulin gene fragment amplified by PCR from the hypotrichous ciliate Histriculus cavicola has been sequenced. This fragment, 1,182 bp long, contains an in-frame "stop" codon (UAA), which in other hypotrichous species codes for a glutamine residue. The comparison of the alpha-tubulin genes from several ciliates classes have revealed amino acid positions which could serve to distinguish these taxonomic groups.
