Virulence and functions of myosin II are inhibited by overexpression of light meromyosin in Entamoeba histolytica.

Molecular biology of the cell - 1 Jun 1998

Abstract excerpt

Several changes in cell morphology take place during the capping of surface receptors in Entamoeba histolytica. The amoebae develop the uroid, an appendage formed by membrane invaginations, which accumulates ligand-receptor complexes resulting from the capping process. Membrane shedding is particularly active in the uroid region and leads to the elimination of accumulated ligands. This appendage has been...
