TheCryptosporidium parvumApiAP2 gene family: insights into the evolution of apicomplexan AP2 regulatory systems
23 Jun 2014
Abstract excerpt
We provide the first comprehensive analysis of any transcription factor family in Cryptosporidium, a basal-branching apicomplexan that is the second leading cause of infant diarrhea globally. AP2 domain-containing proteins have evolved to be the major regulatory family in the phylum to the exclusion of canonical regulators. We show that apicomplexan and perkinsid AP2 domains cluster distinctly from other...
