A new locus (vsp417-4) belonging to the tsa417-like subfamily of variant-specific surface protein genes in Giardia intestinalis.

Abstract excerpt

A new variant-specific surface protein gene locus (vsp417-4) of Giardia intestinalis is described. Vsp417-4 represents the fourth member of a gene subfamily that is based on a previously described gene, tsa417 ( =vsp417-1). The new locus was detected by characterising DNA amplified in polymerase chain reactions from the 3' ends of divergent homologues (vsp417-4(A-I), vsp417-4(A-II)) found respectively in isolates...
