Unique genomic characteristics underlie the infectivity of divergent Cryptosporidium hominis subtypes to animals
2023-11-30
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>The anthroponotic Cryptosporidium hominis differs from the zoonotic C. parvum in its lack of infectivity to rodents, but several divergent C. hominis subtypes has been recently found in nonhuman primates and equines. Here, we performed whole-genome sequencing of 17 animal C. hominis isolates. In a comparative analysis with 222 human isolates, the animal-adapted isolates showed significa...
