Inducing protoplast formation in Phaeodactylum tricornutum by silica deprivation, enzymatic treatment, or cytoskeletal inhibition

Prachee Avasthi, Cameron Dale MacQuarrie, and Atanas Radkov

Published: Mar 29, 2023

Treating P. tricornutum cells with serine endopeptidases or certain cytoskeletal inhibitors induces the formation of cell wall-free protoplasts and suggests a novel role for actin and myosin in preventing protoplast formation.

Chlorarachniophytes form light- and Arp2/3 complex-dependent extensions that are involved in motility and predation

Prachee Avasthi and Cameron Dale MacQuarrie

Published: Dec 04, 2022

Long protrusions from several microalgal species appear to help cells move, capture prey, transport mitochondria and chloroplasts, and more. Are they filopodia that evolved abilities more like other actin- or microtubule-based structures, or are they something new?

Phenotypic differences between interfertile Chlamydomonas species

Tara Essock-Burns, Galo Garcia III, Cameron Dale MacQuarrie, David G. Mets, and Ryan York

Published: Jun 23, 2023

We’re crossing C. reinhardtii and C. smithii algae for high-throughput genotype-phenotype mapping. In preparation, we’re comparing the parents to uncover unique species-specific phenotypes.
