Characterization of a cytochalasin D-resistant mutant of Entamoeba histolytica.

The Journal of protozoology - 1 Jan 2000

de la Garza M, Gallegos B, Meza I

Abstract excerpt

Characterization of a cytochalasin D-resistant mutant of the human parasite Entamoeba histolytica capable of growing at 10 microM cytochalasin is described. The mutant cells also show resistance to 5 mM colchicine and 100 microM cytochalasin B, drugs proved deleterious for wild type trophozoites. The mutants show increased osmotic fragility and electric mobility but reduced phagocytic activity, and agglutination...
