Centrin diversity and basal body patterning across evolution: new insights from Paramecium

Centrin diversity and basal body patterning across evolution: new insights from Paramecium

First discovered in unicellular eukaryotes, centrins play crucial roles in basal body duplication and anchoring mechanisms. While the evolutionary status of the founding members of the family, Centrin2/Vfl2 and Centrin3/cdc31 has long been investigated, the evolutionary origin of other members of th...
