Journal ArticleDOI
Bulk solute extrusion as a mechanism conferring solute uptake specificity by pinocytosis in Amoeba proteus
TL;DR: This response is not elicited by other solutes taken up by pinocytosis in the amoeba, implying that if any selectivity is associated with this process, it is by specific solute extrusion mechanisms in the cytoplasm.
Study of a rediscovered large freshwater multinucleate amoeba Chaos illinoisense (Kudo, 1950)
TL;DR: A large freshwater multinucleate amoeba Chaos illinoisense (Amoebidae), previously only recorded in natural collection by Kudo (1950, 1951) from a small pond in Illinois, Central North America, has been rediscovered in backwaters of the River Luga, North-West Russia.

The fine structure of the euglyphid testate amoeba Assulina muscorum (Rhizopoda: Euglyphidae) with observations of growth rate in culture, morphometries, and siliceous scale deposition
TL;DR: Scanning and transmission electron microscopic analysis of the shell and cytoplasm of Assulina muscorum Greef, 1888 show that the siliceous scales of the test are characteristic of other euglyphid species and originate in the posterior portion of the cy toplasm near Golgi bodies.

D.P. Sartory,B.J. Lloyd +1 more
TL;DR: Unadapted populations of Vorticella convallaria var similis, a sessile peritrich protozoan found abundantly in healthy rivers, activated sludge, percolating filters and slow sand filters, were subjected to a range of concentrations of three common pollutant metals and found that these populations were killed by concentrations of lead, mercury and zinc.

TL;DR: The present study confirms the opinion that the level of synteny between the mitochondrial genomes across the entire Amoebozoa clade is low and was found only between members of the same clade of the genera or family level.
