Abstract excerpt

Two dominant mutations at the RseD locus regulating the differential expression of alternative cell surface immobilization antigens of the ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila are described. RseD1 and RseD2 express I to the exclusion of H (28 degrees C) and are leaky for I when expressing either L (15...
