microRNAs in parasites and parasite infection [PDF]
RNA Biology, 2013 miRNAs, a subclass of small regulatory RNAs, are present from ancient unicellular protozoans to parasitic helminths and parasitic arthropods. The miRNA-silencing mechanism appears, however, to be absent in a number of protozoan parasites. Protozoan miRNAs and components of their silencing machinery possess features different from other eukaryotes ...

The kinomes of apicomplexan parasites [PDF]
, 2012 Protein phosphorylation plays a fundamental role in the biology of apicomplexan parasites. Many apicomplexan protein kinases are substantially different from their mammalian orthologues, and thus constitute a landscape of potential drug targets. Here, we

Microbiology Spectrum, 2016 ABSTRACT Parasites are an important cause of human disease worldwide. The clinical severity and outcome of parasitic disease is often dependent on the immune status of the host. Specific parasitic diseases discussed in this chapter are amebiasis, giardiasis, cryptosporidiosis, cyclosporiasis, cystoisosporiasis, microsporidosis, granulomatous ...

Comparative genomics of parasites [PDF]
, 2013 Comparative genomics is an emerging field in biology that started in 1995 when the first two genomes of self-replicating organisms had been sequenced. Since then, a plethora of genome sequences from parasites, hosts and vectors has been made available ...
