Microneme proteins play an important role in the adherence of apicomplexan parasites to
host cells during the invasion process. In this study, the microneme 2 protein from the …

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 …

Avian coccidiosis caused by Eimeria leads to huge economic losses on the global poultry
industry. In this study, microneme adhesive repeat regions (MARR) bc1 of E. tenella …

ABSTRACT Microneme proteins (MICs) of Eimeria tenella play key roles in motility,
migration, attachment, and invasion processes. More than 20 apicomplexan parasite's MICs …

Eimeria tenella microneme protein 1 (EtMIC-1) is highly conserved with TgMIC-2, which is
involved in parasite binding specifically to host cells. Little is known about the immune …

A 50 kDa acidic protein, which is found within the microneme organelles of Eimeria tenella
sporozoites and merozoites and called E. tenella mic-2, was cloned by immunoscreening of …

The apicomplexan pathogens of Eimeria tenella cause coccidiosis, an intestinal disease of
chickens that has a major economic impact on the poultry industry. Members of Apicomplexa …

The gene coding for Eimeria tenella protein EtMIC3 was cloned by screening a sporozoite
cDNA library with two independent monoclonal antibodies raised against the oocyst stage …

Avian coccidian parasites exhibit a high degree of site specificity in different Eimeria
species. Although the underlying mechanism is unclear, an increasing body of evidence …

Eimeria acervulina (E. acervulina) is an intestinal protozoon and few of its antigen genes
were researched. In this study, the gene of E. acervulina microneme protein 2 (EaMIC2) was …
