Comparative insights to the transportome of <i>Nosema</i> : a genus of parasitic microsporidians
2017-02-22
Abstract excerpt
Nosema, a genus of parasitic microsporidia, causes pebrine disease in arthropods, including economically important silkworms and honeybees. Nosema have gene-poor genomes shaped by loss of the metabolic pathways, as a consequence of continued dependence on host-derived substrates. As an act of counterbalance, they have developed an array of transporter proteins that allow stealing from their hosts. Here, we have i...
