An evolutionarily conserved laterally acquired toolkit enables microbiota targeting by <i>Trichomonas</i>

2025-04-23

Abstract excerpt

Trichomonas species are a diverse group of obligate extracellular symbionts associated with or attributed to various inflammatory diseases. They colonise mucosal surfaces across a wide range of hosts, all of which harbour a resident microbiota. Their evolutionary history likely involved multiple host transfers, including zoonotic events from columbiform birds to mammals. Using comparative transcriptomics, this stu...
