The conjusome: a novel structure in Tetrahymena found only during sexual reorganization.

Journal of cell science - 1 Apr 1999

Janetopoulos C, Cole E, Smothers J F, Allis C D, Aufderheide K J

Abstract excerpt

A unique structure, the conjusome, has been identified and initially characterized in Tetrahymena thermophila. The conjusome appears only during a specific phase of conjugation. Immunofluorescence microscopy reveals that the conjusome is strongly labeled by antibodies to the protein Pdd1p. Pdd1p is a chromodomain protein and participates in the formation of chromatin-containing structures in developing...
