Improved genomic assembly and genomic analyses of Entamoeba histolytica

2018-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Amoebiasis is the third most common cause of mortality worldwide from a parasitic infection. It affects up to 50 million people annually, of whom 100,000 will die from the disease each year. Amoebiasis is caused by the amoeba Entamoeba histolytica, an obligate parasite of humans. Our understanding of the biology of this pathogen has been greatly advanced by the sequencing of its genome. However, the unusual nature...
