Draft genome of the marine <i>Entamoeba</i> species reveals reduction in the gene family repertoire associated with pathogenicity and lateral gene transfer for adaptation to the marine environment
2025-02-15
Abstract excerpt
Entamoeba is the amoebozoan parasite commonly found in the intestines of animals. E. marina is the first exception isolated from marine sediments, possibly adapting from animal intestines to the sea. However, the evolutionary process of E. marina remains uncertain due to the lack of a genome sequence. Here, we present the de novo genome and transcriptome of E. marina using Oxford Nanopore MinION and Illumina H...
