A flagellate-to-amoeboid switch in the closest living relatives of animals

T. Brunet, M. Albert, W. Roman, D. Spitzer, N. King

This study shows that choanoflagellates can switch from a flagellate to an amoeboid phenotype under spatial confinement, suggesting myosin-mediated amoeboid motility was present in the last common ancestor of animals and choanoflagellates.
