Fluid-phase endocytosis is not reduced in <i>E. histolytica</i> cells over-expressing H644 or EhLimA.

<p>Wild-type (WT) or transgenic cells were incubated with the fluid-phase marker, FITC-dextran for 30 minutes, lysed, and analyzed for internalized FITC-dextran using spectrofluorimetry. The data represent the mean ± S.D. of ≥3 experiments. Amoebae over-expressing H644 or EhLimA exhibit normal uptake of fluid-phase marker suggesting that these cell lines do not have wide-spread defects in endocytosis.
