cyst substantial amounts of CHS-1 and CHS-2 RNA are present 4 to 8 hours after induction of cyst formation by glucose deprivation. In contrast to CHS-1 RNA, expression of CHS-2 RNA is more transient and no plateau is observed between 8 and 16 hours of encystation. Both CHS RNAs are no longer detectable after 48 hours when most of the cells are transformed into mature cysts Entamoeba invadens
