  • Title: [Distribution of zymodemes of Entamoeba histolytica from different areas of China].
    Author: Cheng XJ, Huang MY.
    Journal: Zhongguo Ji Sheng Chong Xue Yu Ji Sheng Chong Bing Za Zhi; 1991; 9(1):17-20. PubMed ID: 1829658.
    Abstract:
    Using agarose gel electrophoresis, the electrophoretic patterns of four enzymes: malate NADP oxidoreductase (malic enzyme) (ME), glucosephosphate isomerase (GPI), phosphoglucomutase (PGM) and hexokinase (HK), were compared and analysed for five strains of Entamoeba histolytica, which had been obtained from patients with acute amebic dysentery or asymptomatic cyst carrier in Beijing, Tianjin and Fujian Province. The results showed that the electrophoretic patterns of all the five strains of E. histolytica belong to pathogenic zymodeme, zymodeme XIV, which is suggested to be the main pathogenic zymodeme in our country.
