Are Babesia vogeli genotypes associated with Rhipicephalus sanguineus and Rhipicephalus linnaei distribution? [PDF]
Abstract Background In South America, Babesia vogeli is the primary causative agent of canine babesiosis, and brown dog ticks (Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu lato) are the vectors. The recent separation of brown dog ticks into Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu stricto (“temperate lineage”) and Rhipicephalus linnaei ...

The Arginine Kinase from the Tick Rhipicephalus sanguineus Is an Efficient Biocatalyst
Arginine kinase (AK) is a reversible enzyme that regulates invertebrates’ phosphagen arginine phosphate levels. AK also elicits an immune response in humans, and it is a major food allergen in crustacea and may be a target for novel antiparasitic drugs ...
