Carbohydrate analysis of Acanthamoeba castellanii

open access: yesExperimental Parasitology, 2009
We analyzed biochemically Acanthamoeba castellanii trophozoites, intact cysts and cyst walls belonging to the T4 genotype using gas chromatography combined with mass spectrometry. Cyst walls were prepared by removing intracellular material from cysts by pre-treating them with sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) containing dithiothreitol, and then subjecting ...

Elucidation of iron homeostasis in Acanthamoeba castellanii

International Journal for Parasitology, 2022
Acanthamoeba castellanii is a ubiquitously distributed amoeba that can be found in soil, dust, natural and tap water, air conditioners, hospitals, contact lenses and other environments. It is an amphizoic organism that can cause granulomatous amoebic encephalitis, an infrequent fatal disease of the central nervous system, and amoebic keratitis, a ...

Preparation of an immunotoxin for Acanthamoeba castellanii

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1984
Acanthamoeba castellanii (Neff) is a small free-living amoeba which is closely related to pathogenic organisms that produce almost invariably fatal human infections (1). The f(ab)' fragment of a monoclonal antibody (designated A9) specifically reactive to the A. castellanii cell surface, was covalently linked to the A chain of diphtheria toxin.

Purine salvage by Acanthamoeba castellanii

International Journal for Parasitology, 1987
Abstract Trophozoites of Acanthamoeba castellanii were found to incorporate a range of purine bases and nucleosides into parasite nucleic acids. Results from competition studies suggest that A. castellanii is capable of interconverting purine nucleotides.
