Comparative genome analysis of three eukaryotic parasites with differing abilities to transform leukocytes reveals key mediators of Theileria-induced leukocyte transformation

We sequenced the genome of Theileria orientalis , a tick-borne apicomplexan protozoan parasite of cattle. The focus of this study was a comparative genome analysis of T . orientalis relative to other highly pathogenic Theileria species, T . parva and T . annulata . T . parva and T . annulata induce...
