Isolation and characterization of magbane, a magnesium-lethal mutant of paramecium.

Genetics - 1 Jul 2001

Hammond J A, Preston R R

Abstract excerpt

Discerning the mechanisms responsible for membrane excitation and ionic control in Paramecium has been facilitated by the availability of genetic mutants that are defective in these pathways. Such mutants typically are selected on the basis of behavioral anomalies or resistance to ions. There have been few attempts to isolate ion-sensitive strains, despite the insights that might be gained from studies of their...
