Single Amino Acid Polymorphisms in the <i>Fasciola hepatica</i> Carboxylesterase Type B Gene and Their Potential Role in Anthelmintic Resistance
The expression of the <i>Fasciola hepatica</i> carboxylesterase type B (CestB) gene is known to be induced upon exposure to the anthelmintic triclabendazole (TCBZ), leading to a substantial rise in enzyme-specific activity. Furthermore, the nucleotide sequence of the CestB gene displays...
