They determined that the antibodies that triggered arthritis target an enzyme called glucose-6-phosphate isomerase, or GPI. To address the source of infection in humans and public health importance of Giardia duodenalis parasites from animals, nucleotide sequences of the triosephosphate isomerase (TPI) gene were generated for 37 human isolates 15 dog isolates, 8 muskrat isolates, 7 isolates each from cattle and beavers, and 1 isolate each from a rat and a rabbit. In cells, the oxidation of ascorbate to DHA is readily reversible owing to specific enzymatic systems, including DHA reductase, glutaredoxins, and protein disulfide isomerase, and depends on glutathione or other thiols as electron donors (Tsao 1997). |
