Abstract:Entamoeba histolytica causes amebiasis, a significant global health issue, with millions affected annually, especially in developing countries. EhDUF2419, an important protein involved in E. histolytica’s queuine salvage pathway and its interaction network, remains unclear. To explore this, we transfected E. histolytica trophozoites with a plasmid encoding Myc-tagged EhDUF2419 and achieved successful overexpression. Through immunoprecipitation with the Myc antibody followed by mass spectrometry, we identified … Show more
