Abstract

Stentor coeruleus is a giant single-celled ciliates that reach lengths of up to 1 mm. Because of their large size, these cells are easy to manipulate, and they also possess the ability to heal wounds and regenerate. These properties are ideal for investigating subcellular pattern formation, as we can physically dissect the cells into anterior and posterior halves. We used bulk RNA-sequencing to assay for regionalized mRNAs in the anterior or posterior half of the cell.
