The Entamoeba lysine and glutamic acid rich protein (KERP1) virulence factor gene is present in the genomes of Entamoeba nuttalli, Entamoeba dispar and Entamoeba moshkovskii [PDF]
The lysine and glutamic acid rich protein KERP1 is a cell surface-expressed virulence factor in the human pathogen Entamoeba histolytica. It was originally suggested that the gene was absent from the related, avirulent human commensal Entamoeba dispar ...
