Characterization of spliced leader trans-splicing in a photosynthetic rhizarian amoeba, Paulinella micropora, and its possible role in functional gene transfer.

+[[!pmid 30024971 desc="Characterised two splice leaders in P. micropora, and discussed a possible link with endosymbiosis and horizontal gene transfer."]]
The splice leader is 16-nt in C. intestinalis ([[Satou et al, 2006|biblio/16822859]]) and 40-nt in O. dioica ([[Ganot et al., 2004|biblio/15314184]]).
+A splice leader was found in the endosymbiotic amoeba _Paulinella
+chromatophora_ by [[Nowack and coll, 2016|biblio/27791007]], and characterised
+by [[Matsuo and coll., 2018|biblio/30024971]].
