Stunning Intricacies of RNA Editing Complexes RECC, RESC, and REH2C: Functional Organization, Developmental Regulation, and Evolutionary History in Kinetoplastid Protists

open access: yesWIREs RNA, Volume 17, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
U‐indel RNA editing targets mRNA:gRNA duplexes through three key complexes that collectively govern assembly, specificity, catalysis, and developmental regulation. Modern tools, including artificial intelligence, analyze the organization, dynamics, and evolution of the remarkable holo‐editosome, opening new avenues in RNA biology and therapy.

A new expression vector for Crithidia fasciculata and Leishmania [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Crithidia fasciculata is a monogenetic parasite of insects. It grows in fully defined media without requiring serum, which facilitates biochemical analysis. We have constructed a series of expression systems that allows expression of transfected genes in

Molecular identification of Crithidia sp. from naturally infected dogs [PDF]

open access: yesIraqi Journal of Veterinary Sciences
The current study was performed to identify Crithidia sp., a blood microparasite, in canines in Al-Qadisiyah Province and its regional districts. The study included collecting blood samples from the cephalic vein from 50 street and domesticated dogs. The

Evolutionary divergence and functional insights into the heteromeric cis‐prenyltransferase of Paramecium tetraurelia

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 6, Page 1681-1707, March 2026.
Heteromeric cis‐prenyltransferases (CPT) are indispensable for dolichol synthesis and protein N‐glycosylation in most eukaryotes. The catalytic subunits are strongly conserved throughout evolution, in contrast to the evolutionarily variable accessory subunits. The POC1 protein from Paramecium tetraurelia is the smallest identified CPT‐accessory subunit

First PCR isolation of Crithidia mellificae (Euglenozoa: Trypanosomatidae) in Apis mellifera (Hymenoptera: Apidae) in Italy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Crithidia mellificae (Langridge & McGhee, 1967) is a trypanosomatid described in Apis mellifera (Linnaeus, 1758). The pathological effects of this parasite on the host are not well known.

Double-stranded RNA reduces growth rates of the gut parasite Crithidia mellificae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Parasites of managed bees can disrupt the colony success of the host, but also influence local bee-parasite dynamics, which is regarded as a threat for wild bees.

Integrating the Microbiome Into Infection Ecology and Evolution in Wild Animals

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 5, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Parasites are a ubiquitous force in nature threatening wildlife populations and ecosystems. Interactions between hosts and their parasites are impacted by host‐associated microbiomes, which are essential for host development, physiology and immunity.

Apoptosis in Crithidia fasciculata [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Crithidia fasciculata belongs to a group of parasites called kinetoplastids that comprise many important human pathogens. Evidence of apoptosis has been found in these parasites with pathways that appear to be different than in mammalian cells. Therefore,
