It was found that some ciliates, Stentor, Spirostomum and Blepharisma, which can contract rapidly like the stalks of Vorticellidae, have Ca2+-binding proteins that are very similar to spasmins, in the immunological sense. The presence of spasmins in other Protozoa and in some Metazoa was also investigated.
研究发现,一些纤毛虫,如喇叭虫、旋口虫和草履虫,它们能像钟形虫科的柄一样快速收缩,在免疫学意义上,它们具有与痉挛蛋白非常相似的钙离子结合蛋白。还研究了其他原生动物和一些后生动物中痉挛蛋白的存在情况。
