De novo transcriptomic analysis of the female and male adults of the blood fluke Schistosoma turkestanicum
... The present study has produced the transcriptome data for adult female and male S. turkestanicum worms, and significantly enlarges the currently known gene repertoire of S. turkestanicum. These data will serve as a ...

Host response to amoebic gill disease in Atlantic salmon and blood fluke infection in Pacific bluefin tuna
... Although the Cardicola spp. infections are considered the major threat to the bluefin tuna industry, very little is known about the host immune response to these parasites. Furthermore, the fish immune response to ...

In silico analysis of the fucosylation associated genome of the human blood fluke Schistosoma mansoni: cloning and characterization of the enzymes involved in GDP L fucose synthesis and Golgi import
... The present study used a genome-wide homology based bioinformatics approach to identify GDP-L-fucose synthesis- and transport-associated genes in the human blood fluke Schistosoma mansoni. The above data ...

Boudicca, a Retrovirus-Like Long Terminal Repeat Retrotransposon from the Genome of the Human Blood Fluke Schistosoma mansoni
... In general, the short branch lengths of the phylogenetic tree reflect the close identity among members of the Ty3/gypsy family, and the clear placement of Boudicca within this group. The fact that elements in this group ...

The blood fluke Schistosoma mansoni cleaves the coagulation protein high molecular weight kininogen (HK) but does not generate the vasodilator bradykinin
... We are interested in how schistosomes modify their environment to promote their survival, and we are in- vestigating the molecular capabilities of selected proteins expressed at the worm surface [7–10]. Here, we explored ...

Functional expression of a novel Kunitz type protease inhibitor from the human blood fluke Schistosoma mansoni
... The outer surface of the adult schistosome tegument is a unique double membrane structure which plays a crucial role in modulating host responses and ensuring parasite survival [54]. As a tegumentally localised protein, ...

Epigenetic origin of adaptive phenotypic variants in the human blood fluke Schistosoma mansoni
... We show here that chromatin structure changes as the Sm PoMuc promoters are the cause for Sm PoMuc transcription polymorphism leading to phenotypic novelty and increase in infection s[r] ...

A cytochrome b561 with ferric reductase activity from the parasitic blood fluke, Schistosoma japonicum
... Initially thought as only electron transporters [25], b561 family members were shown to have ferric reductase capacity following functional characterization of a mammalian duodenal cytb5[r] ...
