Abstract excerpt
Taenia solium 45W proteins are good candidates for development of anti-cysticercosis vaccines. However, the genetic characteristics of the 45 gene family are still unclear between different isolates. We investigated the polymorphism of the 45 gene family between Chinese and Mexican T. solium. Alignment showed that TSO45-4B and TSO45-1C antigens were conserved absolutely, whereas other TSO45 proteins varied...
