Capturing the variant surface glycoprotein repertoire (the VSGnome) of Trypanosoma brucei Lister 427.

Molecular and biochemical parasitology - 1 Jun 2014

Cross George A M, Kim Hee-Sook, Wickstead Bill

Abstract excerpt

Trypanosoma brucei evades the adaptive immune response through the expression of antigenically distinct Variant Surface Glycoprotein (VSG) coats. To understand the progression and mechanisms of VSG switching, and to identify the VSGs expressed in populations of trypanosomes, it is desirable to predetermine the available repertoire of VSG genes (the 'VSGnome'). To date, the catalog of VSG genes present in any...
