Babesia microti-like gene sequences have been characterized in raccoons in both North American and Japan. It is well documented that the microscopic appearance of piroplasms does not always accurately predict the genotype and phylogenetic classification. Discrepancies using phenotype to predict genotype have been reported most frequently when evaluating small piroplasms. We amplified and sequenced the full-length 18S rRNA gene from a small piroplasm identified in a raccoon and used this sequence for phylogenetic analyses. Based on these analyses, the organism was placed in the Babesia sensu stricto clade, confirming that it is a true Babesia sp. This documents that at least two Babesia spp. can infect raccoons. The data generated in this study can be used to design molecular diagnostic tests for detection of this Babesia sp., which will be useful for epidemiologic and comparative phylogenetic studies. As piroplasmosis has been documented with increased frequency in humans in recent years, the results of this study will aid in the recognition of zoonotic babesiosis.}, number={2}, journal={JOURNAL OF WILDLIFE DISEASES}, author={Birkenheuer, Adam J. and Whittington, Julia and Neel, Jennifer and Large, Edward and Barger, Anne and Levy, Michael G. and Breitschwerdt, Edward B.}, year={2006}, month={Apr}, pages={375–380} }

The cDNA is 486 bp in length and encodes a protein of 162 amino acids. Recombinant protein was readily expressed as a GST fusion in Escherichia coli and purified by glutathione affinity chromatography. Expression of recombinant protein in mammalian cells was only accomplished by eliminating the 5′ and 3′ UTR, replacing the IL15 signal peptide with the tissue plasminogen activator signal peptide, and adding 3′ sequence to disrupt presumptive secondary structure of the mRNA. Biologically active feline IL15 was expressed in HEK293T cells and was shown to sustain primary feline lymphocytes, a feline T cell line, and mouse CTLL-2 cells. Proliferation of CTLL-2 cells was induced by the recombinant protein in a dose-dependent manner. Monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies against human IL15 recognized feline IL15 in immunofluorescence and Western blot assays. Additionally, feline IL15 was detectable using a commercially available human IL15 ELISA kit.}, number={2}, journal={CYTOKINE}, author={Dean, GA and Barger, A and LaVoy, A}, year={2005}, month={Jan}, pages={77–83} }
