Molecular characterization and genetic diversity of Babesia bovis and Babesia bigemina of cattle in Thailand. [PDF]

Front Cell Infect Microbiol, 2022
Babesia bovis and B. bigemina are the most common tick-borne parasites that cause bovine babesiosis which effects livestock production, leading to economic losses in tropical and subtropical areas of the world. The aims of this study were to determine the molecular detection, genetic diversity and antigenicity prediction of B.

Prevalence of Babesia bovis and Babesia bigemina in Mali

World Journal of Biology Pharmacy and Health Sciences, 2023
This study, carried out between June 2019 and September 2020 in the localities of Kadiolo, Dioïla and Diéma, aimed to determine the prevalence of Babesia bovis and Babesia bigemina. It involved blood analysis of 648 cattle samples (327 females and 321 males) and tick collection for Babesia bigemina and Babesia bovis parasites and their vectors.

Predicting Protein Therapeutic Candidates for Bovine Babesiosis Using Secondary Structure Properties and Machine Learning

Frontiers in Genetics, 2021
Bovine babesiosis causes significant annual global economic loss in the beef and dairy cattle industry. It is a disease instigated from infection of red blood cells by haemoprotozoan parasites of the genus Babesia in the phylum Apicomplexa.

Structural and antigenic characterization of Babesia Bovis HAP2 domains. [PDF]

Sci Rep
Abstract The tick-borne apicomplexan parasite Babesia bovis causes bovine babesiosis which leads to enormous food and economic losses around the world. The existing resources to manage this disease are limited and have pitfalls, therefore, introduction of new strategies is urgently needed. B.

Cysteine proteinase C1A paralog profiles correspond with phylogenetic lineages of pathogenic piroplasmids [PDF]

, 2018
Piroplasmid parasites comprising of Babesia, Theileria, and Cytauxzoon are transmitted by ticks to farm and pet animals and have a significant impact on livestock industries and animal health in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide.

Identification, expression and characterisation of a Babesia bovis hexose transporter [PDF]

Molecular and Biochemical Parasitology, 2008
Babesia are tick-transmitted haemoprotozoan parasites that infect cattle, with an estimated 500 million at risk worldwide. Here, two predicted hexose transporters (BboHT1 and 2) have been identified within the Babesia bovis genome. BboHT1, having 40% and 47% amino acid sequence similarity compared with the human (GLUT1) and Plasmodium falciparum (PfHT)

The evolutionary dynamics of variant antigen genes in Babesia reveal a history of genomic innovation underlying host-parasite interaction [PDF]

, 2014
Babesia spp. are tick-borne, intraerythrocytic hemoparasites that use antigenic variation to resist host immunity, through sequential modification of the parasite-derived variant erythrocyte surface antigen (VESA) expressed on the infected red blood cell
