The Role of Membrane-Bound Extracellular Vesicles During Co-Stimulation and Conjugation in the Ciliate <i>Tetrahymena thermophila</i>

During sexual reproduction, the freshwater ciliate <i>Tetrahymena thermophila</i> sheds membrane-bound vesicles into the extracellular environment (cEMVs: ciliary extracellular micro-vesicles). We provide evidence that 100 nm vesicles shed from the cilia of starved cells promote mating b...
