Molecular detection of Anaplasma marginale in Arabian Camels (Camelus dromedarius) in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

Journal of the Saudi Society of Agricultural Sciences, 2022
Anaplasmosis, an underestimated tick-borne disease, is a common infection in ruminants including Arabian camels. To our knowledge, few studies have been carried out in Saudi Arabia to identify via molecular methods Anaplasma spp.

A toolbox for conditional control of gene expression in apicomplexan parasites

Molecular Microbiology, Volume 117, Issue 3, Page 618-631, March 2022., 2022
Conditional approaches to manipulate gene expression have become instrumental to study the biology of Apicomplexa. Various tools have been developed in Plasmodium and Toxoplasma parasites, including site‐specific DNA recombinases, regulatable promoters, ribozymes, RNA aptamers and inducible protein degrons.

The Anaplasma marginale msp5 gene encodes a 19-kilodalton protein conserved in all recognized Anaplasma species [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1992
Immunization with Anaplasma marginale outer membranes induced immunity against clinical disease which correlated with antibody titer to outer membrane proteins, including a 19-kDa protein (N. Tebele, T. C. McGuire, and G. H. Palmer, Infect. Immun. 59:3199-3204, 1991).

Antibody against an Anaplasma marginale MSP5 epitope common to tick and erythrocyte stages identifies persistently infected cattle [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1996
A protein epitope of major surface protein 5 (MSP5), defined by monoclonal antibody (MAb) ANAF16C1, is conserved among Anaplasma species (E. S. Visser, T. C. McGuire, G. H. Palmer, W. C. Davis, V. Shkap, E. Pipano, and D. P. Knowles, Jr., Infect. Immun. 60:5139-5144, 1992) and is expressed in the salivary glands of infected ticks.

Knockdown of genes involved in axonal transport enhances the toxicity of human neuromuscular disease‐linked MATR3 mutations in Drosophila

FEBS Letters, Volume 594, Issue 17, Page 2800-2818, September 2020., 2020
Mutations in the nuclear matrix protein Matrin 3 (MATR3) have been identified in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and myopathy. To investigate the mechanisms underlying MATR3 mutations in neuromuscular diseases and efficiently screen for modifiers of MATR3 toxicity, we generated transgenic MATR3 flies. Our findings indicate that expression of wild‐type or

PCR-diagnosis of Anaplasma marginale in cattle populations of Ecuador and its molecular identification through sequencing of ribosomal 16S fragments

BMC Veterinary Research, 2017
Background Bovine anaplasmosis is an endemic disease in tropical and subtropical areas. It is caused by a bacterium named Anaplasma marginale, and represents an economic problem for cattle farmers due to the losses it generates, such as: mortalities ...

First report of Anaplasma marginale infection in goats, Brazil. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Anaplasma marginale, the causative agent of bovine anaplasmosis, is a tick-borne bacterium that causes significant economic losses for cattle industries and is increasingly being detected in other animal species.

High polymorphism in Plasmodium vivax merozoite surface protein-5 (MSP5)

Parasitology, 2006
A key issue relating to developing multi-component anti-malarial vaccines, lies in studying Plasmodium vivax surface proteins' genetic variation. The present work was aimed at amplifying, cloning and sequencing the gene encoding P. vivax merozoite surface protein 5 (PvMSP5) in samples obtained from infected patients from Colombian areas having varying ...

Natural antibody response to Plasmodium falciparum merozoite antigens MSP5, MSP9 and EBA175 is associated to clinical protection in the Brazilian Amazon [PDF]

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2013
AbstractBackgroundAntibodies have an essential role in the acquired immune response against blood stageP. falciparuminfection. Although several antigens have been identified as important antibody targets, it is still elusive which antigens have to be recognized for clinical protection.

Molecular detection of tick‐borne pathogens in bovine blood and ticks from Khentii, Mongolia

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 67, Issue S2, Page 111-118, July 2020., 2020
Abstract Recent studies reported the detection of DNA from tick‐borne pathogens (TBPs) of veterinary relevance such as Anaplasma marginale, Babesia bigemina, Babesia bovis and Theileria orientalis in bovine blood samples from Mongolia. These findings were unexpected, as the known tick vectors of these pathogens are not known to occur in Mongolia.
