Microsporidia Detection and Genotyping Study of Human Pathogenic E. bieneusi in Animals from Spain

PLoS ONE, 2014
Microsporidia are ubiquitous parasites infecting all animal phyla and we present evidence that supports their zoonotic potential. Fecal samples taken from domestic (cats and dogs), farm (pigs, rabbits and ostriches) and wild animals (foxes) from ...

Maturation of subtilisin-like protease NbSLP1 from microsporidia Nosema bombycis

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Microsporidia are obligate intracellular parasites and possess a unique way of invading hosts, namely germination. Microsporidia are able to infect almost all animal cells by germination. During the process, the polar tube extrudes from the spores within,

Conservation of Nematocida microsporidia gene expression and host response in Caenorhabditis nematodes.

PLoS ONE, 2022
Microsporidia are obligate intracellular parasites that are known to infect most types of animals. Many species of microsporidia can infect multiple related hosts, but it is not known if microsporidia express different genes depending upon which host ...
