Tetrahymena Genome Database Wiki is currently undergoing scheduled website updates. We have replaced the GBrowse genome browser with JBrowse2 and are using this GMOD software to display the T. thermophila macronuclear and micronuclear genome sequences. We have also created a new BLAST server interface. Several community database edits from the last year will be added back before December 1. The T. malaccensis, T. elliotti, and T. borealis genomes will be displayed in JBrowse2 in the next month.
We have made changes to OxyDB to reflect the latest reannotation of the genome. Gene names displayed on OxyDB pages have been changed and now link to the updated genome browser. The previous annotation can still be searched using the BLAST server and legacy GBrowse genome browser.
This Special Issue is open to reporting all studies on ciliates as model organisms, seeking to understand their genetics, cell biology, biochemistry, evolution, ecological adaptation, and the complex mechanisms of signaling systems, from the genes involved to the changes in gene expression during cell response, and from the structure and involved evolution of signal molecules to the membrane traffic in the cells. The deadline for submission is 31 December 2021. We look forward to receiving your contributions.

A new paper on methods to identify protein interactions in Tetrahymena has been published. Functional proteomics protocol for the identification of interaction partners in Tetrahymena thermophila. Congratulations to the authors!
We have received an update of the Tetrahymena thermophila genome sequence from researchers at Ocean University of China. The gene pages, BLAST server, and Genome Browser have all been updated accordingly to display these new data. Congratulations to the team involved in this effort!
A publication explaining the new sequences and features has been published:A review of nuclear proteomics results described for Tetrahymena thermophila by Saettone, et al. has been published in the journal Genes. Congratulations to the authors!
A new model for the identification and elimination of DNA sequences from the developing macronucleus has been published.
Postberg, et al., 27nt-RNAs guide histone variant deposition via ‘RNA-induced DNA replication interference’ and thus transmit parental genome partitioning in Stylonychia. Congratulations to the authors!
