During the attempt to seek T. congolense species-specific diagnostic antigens, we discovered one cDNA clone (P74) encoding 74 kDa putative abc1 protein (p74) from T. congolense PCF cDNA library. It has been suggested that members of the abc1 family are novel chaperonins and essential for both the mitochondrial electron transfer in the bc 1 complex and the coenzyme Q biosynthesis. Although abc1 protein in yeast has a nuclear or mitochondrial subcellular location, neither nuclear localization signal nor mitochondrial targeting signal was found within p74. Northern blot analysis revealed that the transcription level of P74 mRNA in bloodstream form (BSF) cells were 4 times higher than that in procyclic form cells. Western blot analysis also indicated that p74...

Theileria orientalis is a benign protozoan species that is widely distributed in Japan, yet sometimes causes serious economic losses in the livestock industry. In this study, we conducted a molecular survey based on genes encoding the major piroplasm surface protein (MPSP) and p23 for T. orientalis detected in cattle grazing in southern areas of Japan, consisting of 2 farms in Kumamoto prefecture (Aso and Kuma districts) and 3 farms in Okinawa prefecture (Ishigaki, Iriomote, and Yonaguni Islands). High prevalence rates of T. orientalis infection were shown in all the cattle populations using the diagnostic MPSP- and p23-PCR assays. Phylogenetic analyses revealed 4 MPSP genotypes and 3 p23 genotypes. Furthermore, MPSP genotype-specific PCR methods were...
