Stress-induced pseudocyst formation--a newly identified mechanism of protection against organic solvents in acanthamoebae of the T4 genotype.

Protist - 1 Jan 2011

Abstract excerpt

Differentiation into highly resistant double-walled cysts is a major mechanism allowing amphizoic acanthamoebae to survive under long-lasting, unfavourable environmental conditions. We found that relatively low concentrations of methanol, acetone or DMSO stimulate promptAcanthamoebadifferentiation into a rounded cyst-like stage with a single envelope. To address whether this rapid response differs from the...
