Giardia intestinalis incorporates heme into cytosolic cytochrome b₅.
The anaerobic intestinal pathogen Giardia intestinalis does not possess enzymes for heme synthesis, and it also lacks the typical set of hemoproteins that are involved in mitochondrial respiration and cellular oxygen stress management. Nevertheless, G. intestinalis may require heme for the function of particular hemoproteins, such as cytochrome b5 (cytb5). We have analyzed the sequences of euka...

In cats four assemblages can occur: A, B, D, and F Assemblages A and B infect either cats, dogs and humans, assemblage D infects cats and dogs and assemblage F only cats. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence and genotypes of G. intes...
متن کاملDIFFERENTIATION OF Giardia intestinalis: FROM LIGHT TO ELETRON MICROSCOPY
Giardia intestinalis is a parasite protist considered a living fossil because it is placed in the earliest divergence and deepest branch in eukaryote evolution. This parasite grows in vitro as trophozoites and under some conditions differentiates into cysts, characterized by presence of a cyst wall (CW). Proteins and carbohydrates compose the CW of the parasite and are transported by the Encyst...
متن کاملCloning of Thai strain Giardia intestinalis.
Axenic cultures of Giardia intestinalis trophozoites were successfully established from human fecal specimens and rectal swabs from dogs using sucrose gradient centrifugation to separate the cysts from fecal material, the excystation method of Robert-Thompson et al. and culture of the preparation in TYI-S-33 medium supplemented with human serum, vitamin mixture and piper acillin and amikacin an...
