http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/9762568http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"Relatively benign Theileria parasites are widespread among cattle in East Asia. Although the parasites are presumed to be of the Theileria sergenti/Theileria buffeli/Theileria orientalis group, their taxonomic status and epidemiology have not been well defined. In the present study, theilerial DNA samples were collected from various East Asian countries, including Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and China. DNA sequences encoding a major piroplasm surface protein were amplified by polymerase chain reaction, followed by cloning into a plasmid vector. More than 20 DNA clones derived from parasite DNA of a single infected animal were examined for their restriction-fragment-length polymorphism, showing that they were classified into four major types. Sequence analysis revealed six types of DNA sequences encoding major piroplasm surface protein with homologies of between 75 and 91%. Of the six sequences, four were identical to those previously reported, while the other two appeared to be new sequences. Among the DNA clones derived from a single infected animal, two to three distinct sequences were often found. Phylogenetic analysis of the six major piroplasm surface protein sequences indicates that five of the six are closely related to each other, and that all are distantly related to the homologous genes of Theileria annulata and Theileria parva. The results suggest that, in addition to those described as T. sergenti/T. buffeli/T. orientalis, there may be some undefined Theileria species distributed in East Asia, and that many cattle are infected with mixed populations of geographically variable Theileria parasites."xsd:string
