The Entamoeba histolytica genome: something old, something new, something borrowed and sex too?

Samuel L Stanley1.   

Abstract

The recent publication of the protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica genome provides new insights into eukaryotic evolution, the role of lateral gene transfer in amebic biology and the adaptations required for eukaryotes that reside within the human intestine.
