Exploring the role of two interacting phosphoinositide 3-kinases of Haemonchus contortus

Abstract

This is the first time that the PI3K-encoding genes have been characterized from a strongylid parasitic nematode. The findings provide insights into the role of the PI3K heterodimer represented by Hc-age-1 and Hc-aap-1 in the developmental biology of H. contortus.
