Infections with protozoa parasites are associated with high burdens of morbidity and
mortality across the developing world. Despite extensive efforts to control the transmission of …

Short introns occur in numerous protist lineages, but there are no reports of intervening
sequences in the protists Giardia lamblia and Trichomonas vaginalis, which may represent …

Alternative splicing and polyadenylation were observed pervasively in eukaryotic
messenger RNAs. These alternative isoforms could either be consequences of physiological …

Codon usage bias of Entamoeba histolytica, a protozoan parasite, was investigated using
the available DNA sequence data. Entamoeba histolytica having AT rich genome, is …

The genome sequence of the protistan parasite Entamoeba histolytica HM-1: IMSS has
been completed recently. Among the findings has been a unique organisation for the tRNA …

Autonomous non-long terminal repeat retrotransposons are commonly referred to as long
interspersed elements (LINEs). Short non-autonomous elements that borrow the LINE …

It is an exciting time in the study of Entamoeba histolytica. Over the past two years, the
natural history and burden of disease in humans has been redefined, mucosal immune …

Homologous recombination (HR) is a DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair pathway that
utilizes a homologous template to fully repair the damaged DNA. HR is critical to maintain …

Homologous recombination (HR) has not been demonstrated in the parasitic protists
Entamoeba histolytica or Entamoeba invadens, as no convenient method is available to …
