Deciphering the Draft Genome of Toxoplasma gondii RH Strain
Toxoplasmosis is a widespread parasitic infection by Toxoplasma gondii, a parasite with at least three distinct clonal lineages. This article reports the whole genome sequencing and de novo assembly of T. gondii RH (type I representative strain), as well as genome-wide comparison across major T. gondii lineages. Genomic DNA was extracted from tachyzoites of T. gondii RH strain and its identity ...
متن کاملFunctional Characterization of Rhoptry Kinome in the Virulent Toxoplasma gondii RH Strain
Toxoplasma gondii is an obligatory intracellular apicomplexan protozoan which can infect any warm-blooded animal and causes severe diseases in immunocompromised individuals or infants infected in utero. The survival and success of this parasite require that it colonizes the host cell, avoids host immune defenses, replicates within an appropriate niche, and exits the infected host cell to spread...
متن کاملdetection of active toxoplasma gondii (rh strain) in the different body tissues of experimentally infected rats
objectives: toxoplasma gondii is a coccidian protozoon which forms tissue cyst in different organs of infected intermediate host. the present study was conducted to demonstrate the active form of parasite in different tissues of rat, which was experimentally infected with rh strain of toxoplasma gondii using bioassay method inmice. materials & methods: in the experimental assay, 75 rats an...
متن کاملPreparation of Toxoplasma gondii RH strain antigen, antigen analysis and antigen detection in sera: a review.
The prevalence of antibodies detected by serology against Toxoplasma gondii in Indonesia is quite high. Therefore further research concerning the antigen used is important to improve the quality of the assay being used with lower cost. An attempt to prepare T. gondii strain RH antigen followed by using it in the ELISA procedure for detecting IgG showed that there was no significant difference b...
متن کاملCyst Formation from Virulent RH Strain of Toxoplasma gondii Tachyzoite: In Vitro Cultivation
BACKGROUND This study was performed to induce conversion of RH strain tachyzoites of Toxoplasma gondii to bradyzoites by pH changing of the culture medium. METHODS HeLa cell monolayers were infected at a 1:1 tachyzoite to cell ratio. Four hours after infection, the culture medium was removed and replaced with culture medium and 5% FCS, adjusted to pH 8 with NaOH. The culture was maintained at...
