Metazoan-protozoan parasite co-infections and host body weight in St Kilda Soay sheep [PDF]
, 2008 For hundreds of years, the unmanaged Soay sheep population on St Kilda has survived despite enduring presumably deleterious co-infections of helminth, protozoan and arthropod parasites and intermittent periods of starvation.

Canonical and variant histones of protozoan parasites [PDF]
, 2011 Protozoan parasites have tremendously diverse lifestyles that require adaptation to a remarkable assortment of different environmental conditions. In order to complete their life cycles, protozoan parasites rely on fine-tuning gene expression. In general,

The cytoskeleton of protozoan parasites
Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1996 There are seven processes that require a cytoskeleton in protozoan parasites: nuclear division, cytokinesis, cell shape determination, motility, invasion, flagellar movement of sperm, and intracellular transport.

H+-translocating pyrophosphatases in protozoan parasites. [PDF]
Parasitol ResAbstractIntegral membrane pyrophosphatases (mPPases) hydrolyze pyrophosphate. This enzymatic mechanism is coupled with the pumping of H + and/or Na + across membranes, which can be either K + -dependent or K + -independent. Inorganic proton–translocating pyrophosphatases (H + -PPases) can transport protons across cell membranes and are reported in ...

Characterisation of tabanid flies (Diptera: Tabanidae) in South Africa and Zambia and detection of protozoan parasites they are harbouring [PDF]
, 2017 Tabanids are haematophagous flies feeding on livestock and wildlife. In the absence of information on the relationship of tabanid flies and protozoan parasites in South Africa and Zambia, the current study was aimed at characterizing tabanid flies ...
