''Reclinomonas'' is a monotypic genus of jakobid protozoans containing the single species ''Reclinomonas americana''.〔Simpson, A. 2008. (''Reclinomonas'' Flavin & Nerad 1993. ''Reclinomonas americana'' Flavin & Nerad 1993. ) Version 05. The Tree of Life Web Project.〕 This organism is a single cell up to 12 micrometers wide. It has two flagella. The cell is in a cup-like lorica which has a stem that attaches to a surface. When the cell reproduces, by undergoing binary fission, one of the two newly split cells produces a new lorica for itself.〔 This protozoan can be found in freshwater.〔 This species was the first jakobid to have its mitochondrial genome sequenced.〔 It contains 97 genes. 62 of them code for proteins.〔Berg, J. M., et al. ''(Biochemistry. )'' Edition 6. Macmillan. 2010. pg. 505.〕 Other jakobids have been sequenced since, and the data was similar.〔 This protozoan feeds on bacteria. It has been described as an excavate. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Reclinomonas」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
