Pleiotropic phenotype in Entamoeba histolytica overexpressing DNA methyltransferase (Ehmeth).

Molecular and biochemical parasitology - 1 May 2006

Fisher Ohad, Siman-Tov Rama, Ankri Serge

Abstract excerpt

The protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica expresses a cytosine-5 DNA methyltransferase (Ehmeth) that belongs to the Dnmt2 proteins family. The biological function of members of the Dnmt2 family is unknown. Constitutive overexpression of Ehmeth resulted in a pleiotropic phenotype that includes...
