Analysis of Rhodopsin G Protein-Coupled Receptor Orthologs Reveals Semiochemical Peptides for Parasite (Schistosoma Mansoni) and Host (Biomphalaria Glabrata) Interplay

2022-02-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Schistosomiasis is a medically significant disease caused by helminth parasites of the genus Schistosoma . The schistosome life cycle requires chemically mediated interactions with an intermediate (aquatic snail) and definitive (human) host. Blocking parasite development within the snail stage requires improved understanding of the interactions between the snail host and the Schistosoma water...
