About: Mastigamoeba

An Entity of Type: eukaryote, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Mastigamoeba is a genus of peolobionts, and treated by some as members of the Archamoebae group of protists. Mastigamoeba are characterized as anaerobic, amitochondriate organisms that are polymorphic. Their dominant life cycle stage is as an amoeboid flagellate. Species are typically free living, though endobiotic species have been described. It includes Mastigamoeba balamuthi. A strain previously called as Mastigamoeba invertens (ATCC 50338) is now classified as Breviata anathema.

  • Mastigamoeba ist eine Gattung von Protisten aus der Gruppe der . Diese Gattung umfasst anaerobe, amitochondriale (Mitochondrien-freie) Einzeller, die polymorph (vielgestaltig) sind.Ihr vorherrschendes Stadium im Lebenszyklus ist das eines amöboiden Flagellaten.Die Arten sind in der Regel freilebend, es wurden jedoch auch endobiotische Arten beschrieben. Die Gattung Mastigamoeba wird oft auch als Phreatamoeba bezeichnet, d. h. diese beiden Begriffe sind dann als Synonyme betrachtet.Die Gattung ist relativ wenig erforscht, und die Zusammensetzung der Gattung ist umstritten.Die Klassifizierung der Gattung und ihrer Arten ist aber immer noch unter Forschern heftig diskutiert.Derzeit sind etwa neun Arten von Mastigamoeba beschrieben.Sie haben viele Ähnlichkeiten mit anderen Archamoebae, wie , Endamoeba und Entamoeba (mit Entamoeba histolytica, E. in­va­dens).Die vielleicht am besten untersuchte Art ist Mastigamoeba balamuthi.

  • Mastigamoeba is a genus of peolobionts, and treated by some as members of the Archamoebae group of protists. Mastigamoeba are characterized as anaerobic, amitochondriate organisms that are polymorphic. Their dominant life cycle stage is as an amoeboid flagellate. Species are typically free living, though endobiotic species have been described. The genus is relatively understudied, and under contention regarding the composition of the genus. While dozens of species have been described (some in other genera such as Phreatamoeba, Dinamoeba, and Mastigina), the well described species are Mastigamoeba aspera Schulze, 1875; Mastigamoeba simplex Kent, 1880; Mastigamoeba chlamys Frenzel, 1897 Lemmermann, 1914; Mastigamoeba viridis Prowazek, 1900; Mastigamoeba trichophora Lauterborn, 1901; Mastigamoeba balamuthi (Chàvez et al., 1986) Simpson et al., 1997; Mastigamoeba schizophrenia Simpson et al., 1997; and Mastigamoeba punctachora Bernard, Simpson and Patterson, 2000. Mastigamoeba balamuthi was initially referred to as Phreatamobea balamuthi and are treated by some as indistinguishable at the generic level, though this is not universally accepted. All species share many similarities with other pelobionts, such as Mastigella and the related Entamoeba. It includes Mastigamoeba balamuthi. A strain previously called as Mastigamoeba invertens (ATCC 50338) is now classified as Breviata anathema. (en)
