Application of RNA interference and protein localization to investigate housekeeping and developmentally regulated genes in the emerging model protozoan Paramecium caudatum

Abstract Unicellular eukaryotes represent tremendous evolutionary diversity. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this diversity remain largely unexplored, partly due to a limitation of genetic tools to only a few model species. Paramecium caudatum is a well-known unicellular eukaryote with...
