On the diversity and clinical importance of Acanthamoeba spp. from Group 1.

Parasitology research - 1 Jun 2021

Corsaro Daniele

Abstract excerpt

Group 1 acanthamoebae are morphologically and phylogenetically distinct from all other Acanthamoeba species. They include five species, each labelled by its genotype: A. astronyxis (T7), A. tubiashi (T8), A. comandoni (T9), unnamed Acanthamoeba sp. (T17), and A. byersi (T18). Thought only environmental, they have recently attracted attention due to their recovery in cases of human keratitis and encephalitis, the...
