Endocytosis is an important virulence function for Entamoeba histolytica, the causative agent of amoebic dysentery. Although a number of E. histolytica proteins that regulate this process have been identified, less is known about the role of lipids. In other systems, phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI3P), a product of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase), has been shown to be required for...
Entamoeba histolytica is the causative agent of amoebic dysentery. Uptake of iron is critical for E. histolytica growth and iron-bound human transferrin (holo-transferrin) has been shown to serve as an iron source in vitro. Although a transferrin-binding protein has been identified in E. histolytica, the mechanism by which this iron source is taken up by this pathogen is not well understood. To gain...
