Plasmodium and Toxoplasma are parasites of major medical importance that belong to the Apicomplexa phylum of protozoa. These parasites transform into various stages during their life cycle and express a specific set of proteins at each stage. Although little is yet known of how gene expression is controlled in Apicomplexa, histone modifications, particularly acetylation, are emerging as key reg...
Many protozoans of the phylum Apicomplexa are invasive parasites that exhibit a substrate-dependent gliding motility. Plasmodium (malaria) sporozoites, the stage of the parasite that invades the salivary glands of the mosquito vector and the liver of the vertebrate host, express a surface protein called thrombospondin-related anonymous protein (TRAP) that has homologs in other Apicomplexa. By g...
Bioinformatics and functional screens identified a group of Family A-type DNA Polymerase (polA) genes encoded by viruses inhabiting circumneutral and alkaline hot springs in Yellowstone National Park and the US Great Basin. The proteins encoded by these viral polA genes (PolAs) shared no significant sequence similarity with any known viral proteins but were remarkably similar to PolAs encoded b...
Los protozoos apicomplexa intestinales (Cryptosporidium spp., Cyclospora cayetanensis y Cystoisospora belli) causan gastroenteritis en Honduras.
The phylum Apicomplexa comprises intracellular protozoa that include many human pathogens. Their nearest relatives are chromerids and colpodellids. We report a case of a Babesia spp.-like relapsing infection caused by a newly described microorganism related to the Apicomplexa. This case is highly suggestive of a previously undescribed type of colpodellid that infects vertebrates.
Rhomboids form a family of polytopic intramembrane serine proteases. In Toxoplasma gondii, an essential activity called microneme protein protease 1 (MPP1) cleaves secreted adhesive proteins within their transmembrane domains, at a site conserved in similar proteins of other Apicomplexa. Current evidence suggests that MPP1 is ubiquitous in the phylum and is encoded by a rhomboid gene. In this a...
sarcocystis is a genus of cyst-forming parasites infecting both animals and human. this study aimed to isolate coccidian tissue cysts from muscle of infected animals by a simple method in addition to molecular identification of sarcocystis cruzi from the samples. the samples were obtained from commercial source in babol, northern iran. five grams of calf muscle was cut into 2-3 pieces in 30 ml ...
Abstract Lysine methylation on histone tails impacts genome regulation and cell fate determination in many developmental processes. Apicomplexa intracellular parasites cause major diseases they have developed complex life cycles with fine-tuned differentiation events. Yet, apicomplexa genomes few transcription factors little is known about their epigenetic control systems. Tick-borne Theileria ...
Alveolates are a diverse group of protists that includes three major lineages: ciliates, apicomplexa, and dinoflagellates. Among these three, it is thought that the apicomplexa and dinoflagellates are more closely related to one another than to ciliates. However, this conclusion is based almost entirely on results from ribosomal RNA phylogeny because very few morphological characters address th...
The invasive stages of Apicomplexa parasites, called zoites, have been largely studied in in vitro systems, with a special emphasis on their unique gliding and host cell invasive capacities. In contrast, the means by which these parasites reach their destination in their hosts are still poorly understood. We summarize here our current understanding of the cellular basis of in vivo parasitism by...
