High impact information on 4-(2-formamido-5-hydroxy-phenyl)-2-hydroxy-4-oxo-butanoic acid

Conjugation in Blepharisma japonicum is induced by interaction between complementary mating-types I and II, which excrete blepharmone (gamone 1) and blepharismone (gamone 2), respectively [1].
PHA, Con-A, or anti-tubulin antibodies inhibit homotypic pair formation, in B, intermedium mating type-I cells in the presence of suboptimal concentrations of gamone II [2].
