The cytidine triphosphate synthetase genes from three diverse strains of Giardia duodenalis have been sequenced and found to vary significantly from one another. The isolates were chosen as representatives of three demes as determined by several crit

Using degenerate oligonucleotides derived from conserved amino acid regions of cytidine triphosphate synthetase, a fragment of the gene from the malarial parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, was isolated by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). This fragment

CTP synthetase (E C 6.3.4.2 UTP: ammonia ligase (ADP-forming)) catalyses the formation of CTP from UTP and, in the human parasite Plasmodium falciparum, is the sole source of cytidine nucleotides. It is thus a potential chemotherapeutic target, espec

Antisense oligonucleotides and ribozymes have shown promise both as antimalarial agents and as tools for identifying genes vital for parasite survival. This task is urgent due to the ineffectiveness of current drug regimes on the most virulent human

Arginine deiminase (EC 3.5.3.6) catalyzes the irreversible catabolism of arginine to citrulline in the arginine dihydrolase pathway. This pathway has been regarded as restricted to prokaryotic organisms but is an important source of energy to the pri

Catalytic RNA (ribozymes) suppressed the growth of the human malarial parasite Plasmodium falciparum in vitro. The phosphorothioated hammerhead ribozymes targeted unique regions of the P. falciparum carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase II gene. The P. falc

Continuous cultivation of both drug-sensitive and drug-resistant strains of Plasmodium falciparum was achieved using a mixture of commercially available serum substitutes. This provides easier standardisation of experimental data and minimises the ri

The cytidine triphosphate synthetase gene from Giardia intestinalis was cloned using a PCR-based strategy. A 519 bp PCR product was obtained from the amplification of genomic DNA using two oligonucleotides derived from the CTP synthetase amino acid c
