Abstract excerpt
Blastocystis sp. is the most common enteric protist colonizing a wide range of host and is characterized by wide genotypic diversity. Heat Shock Protein 70 (HSP70), a common stress-response protein has been associated with increased proliferation in Blastocystis sp. under thermal stress. However, the extent of HSP70 genetic variation and its link to thermostability remains unexplored. Our study aims to elucidate...
