Previous attempts to identify the membrane skeleton of Paramecium cells have revealed a protein pattern that is both complex and specific. The most prominent structural elements, epiplasmic scales, are centered around ciliary units and are closely apposed to the cytoplasmic side of the inner alveolar membrane. We sought to characterize epiplasmic scale proteins (epiplasmins) at the molecular level...
The membrane skeleton of ciliated protozoa, called the epiplasm, is well developed and serves to anchor kinetosomes and other structures to the cell surface. Like intermediate filaments (IFs) in metazoa, epiplasmic proteins characterized so far in ciliates exhibit strong heterogeneity in number and apparent molecular weight. Only a few studies have examined the relationship between the epiplasm and...
