Stage-Specific Expression and Targeting of Cyst Wall Protein–Green Fluorescent Protein Chimeras inGiardia
1 May 2000
Abstract excerpt
In preparation for being shed into the environment as infectious cysts, trophozoites of Giardia spp. synthesize and deposit large amounts of extracellular matrix into a resistant extracellular cyst wall. Functional aspects of this developmentally regulated process were investigated by expressing a series of chimeric cyst wall protein 1 (CWP1)-green fluorescent protein (GFP) reporter proteins. It was demonstrated...
