A species of Encephalitozoon isolated from an AIDS patient: criteria for species differentiation.

W S Hollister1, E U Canning, N I Colbourn.   

Abstract

A microsporidium isolated in vitro from urine of an AIDS patient was identified as a species of Encephalitozoon. Investigation of the isolate by electron microscopy, amplification of DNA by RAPD PCR, protein analysis by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting and infectivity to athymic mice revealed that it differs from established species of the genus.
