The genome of Theileria parva: some structural properties
FEBS Letters
|April 24, 1984
Abstract:
The DNA of the protozoan Theileria parva, the causal agent of the bovine East Coast Fever, has been prepared at least 99% pure from the intra-erythrocytic form of the parasite. Its buoyant density was found to be 1.696 g/cm3 and its calculated G + C content was 36.7%. Fragmentation of T. parva by the restriction enzyme EcoRI provides some evidence of the presence of repetitive DNA sequences.
