Coccidiosis, caused by parasites of the genus Eimeria, is one of the most widespread and
economically detrimental diseases in the global poultry industry. Because the merozoite …

Thioredoxin (Trx) is a widespread protein regulator of redox reactions in all organisms. It
operates together with NADPH and thioredoxin reductase as a general protein disulfide …

Eimeria tenella microneme-1 protein (EtMIC1) has been proposed to be a transmembrane
protein, but this characteristic has not yet been confirmed experimentally. Furthermore …

The gene of Eimeria acervulina microneme protein 3 (Ea MIC 3) was cloned and
characterized. According to the conserved sequence, the 3′‐and 5′‐ends of Ea MIC 3 …

In recent years, directed evolution has emerged as an efficient tool to develop and identify
novel protein variants. Eimeria tenella microneme-2 (EtMIC2) is a promising vaccine …

Understanding the determinants of host and tissue tropisms among parasites of veterinary
and medical importance has long posed a substantial challenge. Among the seven species …

Abstract Microneme proteins (MICs) of Eimeria species are critical for motility of the parasite,
identification and binding of host cell-surface proteins, invasion of host cells, and …

The genome sequences of Eimeria tenella have been sequenced, but> 70% of these genes
are currently categorized as having an unknown function or annotated as conserved …

Eimeria tenella (E. tenella) has caused severe economic loss in chicken production,
especially after the forbidden use of antibiotics in feed. Considering the drug resistant …

Chicken coccidiosis is caused by the apicomplexan parasite Eimeria spp. At present, drug
resistance of Eimeria is common because of the indiscriminate use of anticoccidial drugs …
