Characterization of variants of the gene encoding the p55 antigen in Pneumocystis from rats and mice.

Journal of medical microbiology - 1 Nov 2003

Ma Liang, Kutty Geetha, Jia Qiuyao, Kovacs Joseph A

Abstract excerpt

Variants of the p55 gene in rat-derived Pneumocystis carinii have been identified and its counterpart in mouse-derived P. carinii f. sp. muris has been cloned. By PCR amplification of P. carinii genomic DNA, five variants were identified that differed from each other in size and sequence, primarily in the number and size of encoded amino acid repeats. For P. carinii f. sp. muris, a single PCR fragment (471 bp)...
