Overexpression of a G-protein coupled receptor-like gene affects encystment of <i>Acanthamoeba castellanii</i>

2021-01-07

Abstract excerpt

Acanthamoeba castellanii is an amphizoïc free-living amoeba as it can be found in humans and in the environment. This amoeba represents an important reservoir of pathogenic microorganisms. Persistence of A. castellanii in the environment or in humans is allowed by the ability of the vegetative form to differentiate under cysts when surrounding conditions are unfavorable. In this study, we investigate the role of...
