摘要: Cryptosporidium parvum is an obligate protozoan parasite invading epithelial cells of small intestine of human and animals, and causing diarrheal disease. In apicomplexan parasites, calcium signaling can regulate many essential biological processes such as invasion and migration. As the main intracellular receptor for calcium ions, calmodulins control the activities of hundreds of enzymes and proteins. Calmodulin-like protein (CML) is an important member of the calmodulin family and may play a key role in C. parvum, however, the actual situation is still not clear. The present study aimed to identify the parasite interaction partner proteins of C. parvum calmodulin-like protein (CpCML). By constructing the cpcml bait plasmid, 5 potential CpCML - interacting proteins in C. parvum oocyst were screened by yeast-two-hybrid system (Y2H). Bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) and Co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) were performed as subsequent validations. Fibrillarin RNA methylase (FBL) was identified via this screening method as CpCML interacting protein in C. parvum. The identification of this interaction made it possible to get a further understanding of the function of CpCML and its contribution to the pathogenicity of C. parvum.
