Multicopy subtelomeric genes underlie animal infectivity of divergent Cryptosporidium hominis subtypes

Abstract The anthroponotic Cryptosporidium hominis differs from the zoonotic C. parvum in its lack of infectivity to animals, but several divergent subtypes have recently been found in nonhuman primates and equines. Here, we sequence 17 animal C. hominis isolates and generate a new IbA12G3 genome at...
