Locomotion and phenotypic transformation of the amoeboflagellate Naegleria gruberi at the water-air interface.

The Journal of eukaryotic microbiology - 1 Jan 2000

Preston Terence M, King Conrad A

Abstract excerpt

The protozoon Naegleria gruberi is able to carry out amoeboid locomotion at the water-air interface in a manner indistinguishable from that exhibited on solid substrata with the production of focal contacts and associated filopodia. The speed of locomotion at this interface can be modulated by changes in electrolyte concentrations; these speed changes are identical to those observed at a water-glass interface....
