RNA interference in Pratylenchus coffeae: knock down of Pc-pat-10 and Pc-unc-87 impedes migration.

abstract：:Paramyosin of Clonorchis sinensis (CsPmy) is a myofibrillar protein localized in subtegumental muscle, tegument, and the muscle layer surrounding the intestine of the parasite. Previously, we have identified that CsPmy reacted with sera of human clonorchiasis and this protein had a potential as a candidate antigen for...
