    Notizen: . Didascalus thorntoni, Singh 1952 has been classified alternately as a separate genus or as a species of Naegleria. In the 18th edition of the American Type Culture Collection catalogue it is classified as Naegleria thorntoni. To resolve the question of its identity we have used riboprinting and sequencing of the small subunit ribosomal DNA. The results indicate that D. thorntoni does not belong to the genus Naegleria. The sequence of the small subunit ribosomal DNA differs only in 20 nucleotides (1%) from that of the Paratetramitus jugosus. The difference is much smaller than between some species of Naegleria. Therefore, it is not clear whether D. thorntoni should be considered as a species of Paratetramitus or as a separate genus. The strain used in different laboratories as the type strain of Adelophamoeba gleacystis has been identified as a Naegleria strain. We believe that the type strain of A. galeacystis was mislabeled prior to submission to the American Type Culture Collection and to the Culture Collection of Algae and Protozoa. A recent isolate, which on the basis of morphology was identified as a strain of A. Galeacystis, has the identical small subunit ribosomal DNA sequence as D. throntoni. Our results prove Page was right when he stated that Adelphamoeba might be a synonym of Didascalus.

    Notizen: The sequence variation within the group I intron in five Naegleria spp. was studied and compared with the sequence variation within the flanking small subunit ribosomal DNA. Considerable sequence divergence was observed in the introns as well as in the rDNA. In the intron deletions and insertions are only detected in the sequence contributing to the secondary structure, not in the open reading frame. Most of the sequence variation is detected in the unpaired loops. In the case of nucleotide substitution in helices, compensating base pair changes were observed. The sequence variation does not induce variation in the secondary structure model. The phylogenetic tree based on the intron sequences is similar to the tree based on the flanking rDNA sequences. This observation indicates that the intron might have been acquired at an early stage in evolution, and lost in the majority of Naegleria spp.

    Notizen: . The small subunit ribosomal DNA (SSUrDNA) of all described Naegleria spp. was amplified by polymerase chain reaction with universal primers. In all strains of N. andersoni andersoni, N. andersoni jamiesoni, N. australiensis italica and two related strains, and one out of four clusters of N. gruberi, a band of approximately 3.3 kb was obtained. All other strains displayed a band with the expected DNA length of 2.0 kb. This means the former have a 1.3 kb intron in the SSUrDNA. Restriction analysis demonstrated that the intron is between two conserved Pst I sites at the 5′ end of the SSUrDNA It also suggested the introns might not be identical in each species or subspecies. The Pst I fragment of SSUrDNA containing the 1.3 kb insert in N. andersoni andersoni was cloned and sequence. The 1,296-nucleotide insert is situated in helix 19 of the SSUrDNA, which is an area of conserved primary and secondary structure. Sequence and secondary structure analyses of the insert revealed it is a group I intron. This group I intron is very large and contains an open reading frame that could serve to encode a polypeptide of 139 amino acids in size.

    Notizen: Fourteen strains of Naegleria australiensis, including the type strain, were compared for virulence for mice, maximum growth temperature, lectin agglutination, isoenzyme pattern, and total protein banding pattern. Their relation to other species of Naegleria also was compared by immunoelectrophoretic analysis. Strains with high virulence, comparable to that of N. fowleri, were found to be different in concanavalin A agglutination as well as with regard to zymograms and total protein patterns. Although serologically different from N. fowleri and reacting with N. australiensis antiserum in the fluorescent antibody test, these high-virulence strains differed in number of immunoelectrophoretic precipitin bands. Because of these results, the high-virulence strains are considered to be a subspecies of N. australiensis. The low-virulence strains showed minor differences from the type strain. Thus, N. australiensis does not appear to be as homogenous a species as N. fowleri. Pathogenic N. australiensis also seems to be more widespread than previously thought.
