Abstract excerpt
We analyzed the expression and location of EhRabB in clone L-6, a phagocytosis-deficient mutant of Entamoeba histolytica, in comparison with the wild-type clone A. Intriguingly, trophozoites of clone L-6 express more EhRabB than those of clone A. However, the majority of EhRabB-containing vesicles remained in the cytoplasm of clone L-6 during phagocytosis. To investigate molecular alterations in EhRabB of clone...
