Food and Waterborne Parasitology, 2021 Protozoan parasites in food or water samples are generally detected using microscopy or PCR followed by Sanger sequencing. However, microscopy is subjective, requires a high degree of expertise and has limited sensitivity, while DNA sequencing requires ...

Turkish Journal of Agriculture: Food Science and Technology, 2023 Toxoplasma gondii, an obligatory intracellular protozoan parasite, can infect a wide range of warm-blooded animals, including livestock species. T. gondii is a zoonotic protozoan parasite that affects both humans and other warm-blooded animals.

Melittin as a promising anti-protozoan peptide: current knowledge and future prospects
AMB Express, 2021 Protozoan diseases such as malaria, leishmaniasis, Chagas disease, and sleeping sickness still levy a heavy toll on human lives. Deplorably, only few classes of anti-protozoan drugs have thus far been developed. The problem is further compounded by their

Sequence specificity of DNA adenine methylase in the protozoan Tetrahymena thermophila [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1982 The sequence specificity of the Tetrahymena DNA-adenine methylase was determined by nearest-neighbor analyses of in vivo and in vitro methylated DNA. In vivo all four common bases were found to the 5' side of N6-methyladenine, but only thymidine was 3'. Homologous DNA already methylated in vivo and heterologous Micrococcus luteus DNA were methylated in

Current Research in Biotechnology, 2021 Entamoeba histolytica is responsible for amoebiasis in humans. Its atypical cell cycle events and unique stress defense mechanisms make it different from other protozoan parasites.

Sensing DNA methylation in the protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica [PDF]
Molecular Microbiology, 2006 Summary In the protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica , 5‐methylcytosine (m5C) was found predominantly in repetitive elements. Its formation is catalysed by Ehmeth, a DNA methyltransferase that belongs to the Dnmt2 subfamily.

Introduction of plasmid DNA into the trypanosomatid protozoan Crithidia fasciculata. [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1986 Crithidia fasciculata cells were treated with a plasmid (pDK96) containing pBR322 sequences, a Leishmania tarentolae maxicircle autonomously replicating sequence, and the bacterial gene for aminoglycoside 3' phosphotransferase I inserted between the yeast alcohol dehydrogenase 1 promotor and terminator sequences.

Telomeres of polytene chromosomes in a ciliated protozoan terminate in duplex DNA loops [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999 The end of a telomeric DNA sequence isolated from a polytene chromosome of a hypotrichous ciliate folds back and hybridizes with downstream telomeric sequence to form a t loop that is stable in the absence of protein and DNA cross-linking. The single-stranded, telomeric DNA sequence at the end of a macronuclear molecule does not form a t loop but ...

Animals, 2022 Bacterial and protozoan agents can determine abortion and other reproductive disorders in domestic ruminants, but data regarding their occurrence in wild ruminants are scanty worldwide, including in Italy.
