Characterization of novel microneme adhesive repeats (MAR) in Eimeria tenella (2017)
Journal Article
Marugan-Hernandez, V., Fiddy, R., Nurse-Francis, J., Smith, O., Pritchard, L., & Tomley, F. M. (2017). Characterization of novel microneme adhesive repeats (MAR) in Eimeria tenella. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-017-2454-4

In this study, we evaluated the binding capacity of Type I MAR domains from novel E. tenella MCPs. Variants of the previously described HxT motif were analysed showing that HxT and VxT variants bind, whereas HxS and YxE variants did not. One of these...

Neospora caninum and Bovine Neosporosis: Current Vaccine Research (2017)
Journal Article
Marugan-Hernandez, V. (2017). Neospora caninum and Bovine Neosporosis: Current Vaccine Research. Journal of Comparative Pathology, 157(2-3), 193-200. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jcpa.2017.08.001

Neospora caninum, a tissue cyst-forming parasite, is the causative agent of bovine neosporosis. It is considered to be one of the most important transmissible causes of reproductive failure in cattle; abortion and neonatal mortality result in signifi...

Eimeria tenella protein trafficking: differential regulation of secretion versus surface tethering during the life cycle (2017)
Journal Article
Marugan-Hernandez, V., Long, E., Blake, D. P., Crouch, C., & Tomley, F. M. (2017). Eimeria tenella protein trafficking: differential regulation of secretion versus surface tethering during the life cycle. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-017-04049-1

Eimeria spp. are intracellular parasites that have a major impact on poultry. Effective live vaccines are available and the development of reverse genetic technologies has raised the prospect of using Eimeria spp. as recombinant vectors to express ad...
