Glycoprotein gp130 of dictyostelium discoideum influences macropinocytosis and adhesion.

abstract：:Functional proteins of complex eukaryotes within the same species are rather invariant. A single catalytic component of telomerase TERT is essential for an active telomerase complex that maintains telomeres. Surprisingly, we have identified two paralogous SpTERT-L and SpTERT-S genes with novel domains in Strongylocent...
