ProtVirDB: a database of protozoan virulent proteins [PDF]
Abstract Summary: ProtVirDB is a comprehensive and user-friendly web-based knowledgebase of virulent proteins belonging to protozoan species. The database will facilitate research and provide an integrated platform for comparative studies of virulent proteins in different parasitic protozoans and organize them under a unifying ...

Protein acetylation in the critical biological processes in protozoan parasites [PDF]
Protein lysine acetylation has emerged as a major regulatory post-translational modification in different organisms, present not only on histone proteins affecting chromatin structure and gene expression but also on nonhistone proteins involved in several cellular processes. The same scenario was observed in protozoan parasites after the description of

Production of recombinant proteins from protozoan parasites [PDF]
Although the past decade has witnessed sequencing from an increasing number of parasites, modern high-throughput DNA sequencing technologies have the potential to generate complete genome sequences at even higher rates. Along with the discovery of genes that might constitute potential targets for chemotherapy or vaccination, the need for novel protein ...

Cysteine proteases in protozoan parasites. [PDF]
Cysteine proteases (CPs) play key roles in the pathogenesis of protozoan parasites, including cell/tissue penetration, hydrolysis of host or parasite proteins, autophagy, and evasion or modulation of the host immune response, making them attractive ...

Role of Host Small GTPases in Apicomplexan Parasite Infection
The Apicomplexa are obligate intracellular parasites responsible for several important human diseases. These protozoan organisms have evolved several strategies to modify the host cell environment to create a favorable niche for their survival.

Released Parasite-Derived Kinases as Novel Targets for Antiparasitic Therapies
The efficient manipulation of their host cell is an essential feature of intracellular parasites. Most molecular mechanisms governing the subversion of host cell by protozoan parasites involve the release of parasite-derived molecules into the host cell ...

Protein arginine methyltransferases in protozoan parasites
AbstractArginine methylation is a post-translational modification involved in gene transcription, signalling pathways, DNA repair, RNA metabolism and splicing, among others, mechanisms that in protozoa parasites may be involved in pathogenicity-related events.
