Entamoeba Chitinase is Required for Mature Round Cyst Formation

Microbiology Spectrum, 2021
Entamoeba histolytica, a protozoan parasite, causes amoebiasis in humans. Amoebiasis transmission is solely mediated by chitin-walled cysts, which are produced in the large intestine of humans from proliferative trophozoites by a cell differentiation ...
