Complete sequence of the mitochondrial genome of the tapeworm Hymenolepis diminuta: gene arrangements indicate that Platyhelminths are Eutrochozoans.
Using "long-PCR," we amplified in overlapping fragments the complete mitochondrial genome of the tapeworm Hymenolepis diminuta (Platyhelminthes: Cestoda) and determined its 13,900-nt sequence. The gene content is the same as that typically found for animal mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) except that atp8 appears to be lacking, a condition found previously for several other animals. Despite the small ...
متن کاملThymus dependence of tapeworm (Hymenolepis diminuta) elimination from mice.
Although normal mice eliminated the lumen-dwelling intestinal cestode Hymenolepis diminuta by day 21 post-cysticercoid inoculation, congenitally thymus-deficient (nude) mice maintained their work burdens. Nude mice grafted with thymus glands or injected with thymus cells eliminated their worms.
متن کاملEstablishment Success of the Beetle Tapeworm Hymenolepis diminuta Depends on Dose and Host Body Condition
Parasite effects on host fitness and immunology are often intensity-dependent. Unfortunately, only few experimental studies on insect-parasite interactions attempt to control the level of infection, which may contribute substantial variation to the fitness or immunological parameters of interest. The tapeworm Hymenolepis diminuta-flour beetle Tenebrio molitor model-has been used extensively for...
متن کاملIdentification of an NAD-dependent 3-acetamidobenzamide-sensitive system in oncospheres from the tapeworm Hymenolepis diminuta.
( a ) Autoradiograph of RNA species which arise in a transcription reaction. Nomenclature, fragment sizes and experimental conditions are as in 141. RNA circles are arrowed wth their tentative sizes in nucleotides. Precursor (p), ribozyme (IVS), ligated exons (SE3E) and precursor in which the downstream exon has been hydrolysed (5EI) are depicted. ( b ) Autoradiograph of radiolabelled amplified...
متن کاملthe effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)
cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...
