RNAi-mediated silencing of Trichinella spiralis glutaminase results in reduced muscle larval infectivity

Abstract Trichinella spiralis is an important foodborne parasitic nematode distributed worldwide that infects humans and animals. Glutaminase (GLS) is an important gene in the glutamine-dependent acid resistance (AR) system; however, its role in T. spiralis muscle larvae (ML) remains unclear. The pr...
