Abstract excerpt
The ribosomal RNA genes of the protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica are highly repeated and display restriction fragment length polymorphism. Using a set of four DNA probes spanning the coding region and part of the flanking region of the E. histolytica ribosomal RNA genes, an analysis of the DNA bands generated by EcoRI digestion of Entamoeba DNA is presented. This analysis included five strains of E....
