Complexity of the MSG gene family of Pneumocystis carinii.

BMC genomics - 7 Aug 2009

Keely Scott P, Stringer James R

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The relationship between the parasitic fungus Pneumocystis carinii and its host, the laboratory rat, presumably involves features that allow the fungus to circumvent attacks by the immune system. It is hypothesized that the major surface glycoprotein (MSG) gene family endows Pneumocystis with the capacity to vary its surface. This gene family is comprised of approximately 80 genes, which each are...
