Surface antigens of Toxoplasma gondii: variations on a theme.

International journal for parasitology - 1 Oct 2001

Lekutis C, Ferguson D J, Grigg M E, Camps M, Boothroyd J C

Abstract excerpt

Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate intracellular protozoan parasite with an exceptionally broad host range. Recently, it has become apparent that the number of surface antigens (SAGs) it expresses may rival the number of genera it can infect. Most of these antigens belong to the developmentally regulated and distantly related SAG1 or SAG2 families. The genes encoding the surface antigens are distributed throughout...
