Chromosome organization of <i>Entamoeba histolytica</i> and <i>Entamoeba dispar</i>

2026-07-09

Abstract excerpt

Entamoeba histolytica is a clinically important pathogenic eukaryote and the causative agent of amoebic dysentery. Entamoeba dispar , a nonpathogenic commensal species that resides in the human colon, is the closest sibling species, and serves as an appropriate comparator for genome-wide analysis. Although the genome of E. histolytica is approximately 26.9 Mb, and the largest known genome within the genus, that...
