Restriction mapping of the genome of the protozoan parasite Theileria parva. [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1992 We have used a modified linking clone strategy and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis to derive a map of the 29 Sfi I and 4 Not I sites in the 10 million base pair genome of the protozoan parasite Theileria parva. This was achieved in the absence of classical genetic information. The map reveals four chromosomes.

ProtozoaDB: dynamic visualization and exploration of protozoan genomes [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 2007 ProtozoaDB (http://www.biowebdb.org/protozoadb) is being developed to initially host both genomics and post-genomics data from Plasmodium falciparum, Entamoeba histolytica, Trypanosoma brucei, T. cruzi and Leishmania major, but will hopefully host other protozoan species as more genomes are sequenced.

piRNA pathway evolution beyond gonad context: Perspectives from apicomplexa and trypanosomatids
Frontiers in Genetics, 2023 piRNAs function as genome defense mechanisms against transposable elements insertions within germ line cells. Recent studies have unraveled that piRNA pathways are not limited to germ cells as initially reckoned, but are instead also found in non-gonadal

Parasites & Vectors, 2023 Background A close connection between a protozoan parasite and the balance of the other gut microbes of the host has been demonstrated. The calves may be naturally co-infected with many parasites, and the co-effects of parasites on other intestinal ...

CysQ of , a Protozoa, May Have Been Acquired from Bacteria by Horizontal Gene Transfer [PDF]
Genomics & Informatics, 2012 Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is the movement of genetic material between kingdoms and is considered to play a positive role in adaptation. Cryptosporidium parvum is a parasitic protozoan that causes an infectious disease. Its genome sequencing reported

Are protozoan metacaspases potential parasite killers?
Parasites & Vectors, 2011 Mechanisms concerning life or death decisions in protozoan parasites are still imperfectly understood. Comparison with higher eukaryotes has led to the hypothesis that caspase-like enzymes could be involved in death pathways.
