ABSTRACT = { Syntaxin-1 and 25-kDa Synaptosome-associated Protein (SNAP-25) are present in the plasma
membrane of several different secretory cell types and are involved in the exocytosis process. In this work,
the free-living amoeba Difflugia corona was studied in relation to ultrastructure, structural membrane proteins, and proteins such as Syntaxin-1 and SNAP-25. Our results obtained by scanning electron microscopy
in the amoeba without its theca, showed many membrane projections and several pore-like structures. Using
immunocytochemistry, we found structural proteins Syntaxin-1 and SNAP-25.
