Abstract
In the 4 yr since the molecular biology of DNA in Naegleria was last reviewed several major advances have been made, and these are reviewed here: isolation and characterization of mitochondrial and ribosomal DNAs; enumeration of chromosomal DNAs by pulsed field gel electrophoresis; sequence analysis of differentially expressed genes; phylogenetic placement of the genus Naegleria among the eukaryotes and Naegleria species within the genus.Keywords
