Abstract: Physarum polycephalum is a plasmodial slime mold. One of the trophic stages in the life cycle of this organism is a plasmodium. In submerged culture, plasmodia are fragmented into microplasmodia. The latter both lack cell… read more here.

Abstract: Spliceosomal introns interrupt nuclear genes and are removed from RNA transcripts ("spliced") by machinery called spliceosomes. Although the vast majority of spliceosomal introns are removed by the so-called major (or "U2") spliceosome, diverse eukaryotes also… read more here.
