| Abstract |
A cDNA clone encoding a putative Bop1 homologous protein was identified in Giardia lamblia. Since Bop1 is a nucleolar protein involved in rRNA processing, thereby controlling the cell cycle, we investigated components of cell cycle control in G. lamblia by identifying the protein(s) that interact with Bop 1. Through an immunoaffinity column made with polyclonal antibodies specific to the recombinant Bop1 of G. lamblia, a pool of proteins was obtained from the crude extracts of Giardia and then used as antigens to immunize rats. By employing the resultant sera for cDNA library immunoscreening, we isolated cDNA clones encoding an immunopurified protein, which turned out to contain the gene for beta-giardin, a Giardia-specific cytoskeletal protein. The interaction between Bop1 and beta-giardin was confirmed via two different methods, yeast two-hybrid assay and coimmunoprecipitation. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 6. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 12 September 2023.
All research outputs
#5,181,398
of 24,453,338 outputs
Outputs from Parasitology Research
#302
of 3,930 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#19,643
of 152,400 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Parasitology Research
#2
of 13 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,453,338 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 75th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,930 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.9. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 90% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 152,400 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 81% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 13 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 84% of its contemporaries.
