Flow cytometry sorting of nuclei enables the first global characterization of Paramecium germline DNA and transposable elements

Abstract Background DNA elimination is developmentally programmed in a wide variety of eukaryotes, including unicellular ciliates, and leads to the generation of distinct germline and somatic genomes. The ciliate Paramecium tetraurelia harbors two types of nuclei with different functions and genome...
