Molecular evidence for a new lineage within the Acanthamoeba T4 genotype.

Parasitology research - 1 Jun 2023

Corsaro Daniele, Venditti Danielle

Abstract excerpt

Acanthamoeba is a widespread free-living amoeba capable of causing serious infections in humans and other animals, such as amoebic keratitis, disseminated infections, and fatal encephalitis. Strain identification is usually based on 18S rDNA sequencing, which allows the distinction of over twenty genotypes. Most sequences from environmental and clinical samples belong to the T4 genotype, which can be divided into...
