Expressed sequence tag (EST) analysis of Gregarine gametocyst development.
Gregarines are protozoan parasites of invertebrates in the phylum Apicomplexa. We employed an expressed sequence tag strategy in order to dissect the molecular processes of sexual or gametocyst development of gregarines. Expressed sequence tags provide a rapid way to identify genes, particularly in organisms for which we have very little molecular information. Analysis of approximately 1800 exp...
متن کاملA hitchhiker's guide to expressed sequence tag (EST) analysis
Expressed sequence tag (EST) sequencing projects are underway for numerous organisms, generating millions of short, single-pass nucleotide sequence reads, accumulating in EST databases. Extensive computational strategies have been developed to organize and analyse both small- and large-scale EST data for gene discovery, transcript and single nucleotide polymorphism analysis as well as functiona...
متن کاملSearching the Expressed Sequence Tag (EST) Databases: Panning for Genes
The genomes of living organisms contain many elements, including genes coding for proteins. The portions of the genes expressed as mature mRNA, collectively known as the transcriptome, represent only a small part of the genome. The expressed sequence tag (EST) databases contain an increasingly large part of the transcriptome of many species. For this reason, these databases are probably the mos...
متن کاملExpressed Sequence Tag Analysis of the Erythrocytic Stage of Plasmodium berghei
Rodent malaria parasites, such as Plasmodium berghei, are practical and useful model organisms for human malaria research because of their analogies to the human malaria in terms of structure, physiology, and life cycle. Exploiting the available genetic sequence information, we constructed a cDNA library from the erythrocytic stages of P. berghei and analyzed the expressed sequence tag (EST). A...
متن کاملThe fine structure of intra-erythrocytic stages of Babesia bigemina.
The electron microscope was used to study the structure of merozoites, merozoites in the process of transformation to trophozoites, trophozoites, and the method of multiplication of B. bigemina. The merozoites were piriform in shape and surrounded by 3 peripheral membranes of which the 2 inner ones often appeared as a single thick osmiophilic structure (inner membrane). Anterior and posterior p...
