BACKGROUND
Gametocyte proteins of Eimeria (E.) spp. are important components of the oocyst wall and some have been used to develop transmission-blocking vaccines against avian coccidiosis.
METHODS
Total RNA isolated from E. necatrix gametocytes was utilized as templates for RT-PCR amplification and
The sexual (macrogamete/macrogametocyte) stage antigen, GAM82, in the apicomplexan parasite Eimeria maxima, has an apparent molecular mass of 82 kDa, and has been implicated in protective immunity against coccidiosis in poultry. The gene encoding this protein, gam82, was cloned and sequenced. It is
Gametocyte proteins of Eimeria spp. are essential components of the oocyst wall, and some of these proteins have been analysed to identify targets of transmission-blocking vaccines against avian coccidiosis. In the present study, a cDNA from E. necatrix gametocytes was cloned and sequenced. The cDNA
A wide range of recombinant proteins from Eimeria species have been reported to offer some degree of protection against infection and disease, but the specific biological function of these proteins is largely unknown. Previous studies have demonstrated a 19-kDa protein of unknown function designated
Coccidiosis, caused by different species of Eimeria parasites, is an economically important disease of poultry and livestock worldwide. Here we report previously unknown alterations in the gut microbes and metabolism of BALB/c mice infected with Eimeria falciformis Specifically, we observed a
Eimeria tenella is the causative agent of coccidiosis in poultry. Infection of the chicken intestine begins with ingestion of sporulated oocysts releasing sporocysts, which in turn release invasive sporozoites. The monoclonal antibody E2E5 recognizes wall-forming body type II (WFBII) in gametocytes
