Allele-specific expression of a variant-specific surface protein (VSP) of Giardia lamblia.

Nucleic acids research - 11 Jun 1994

Yang Y, Adam R D

Abstract excerpt

The surfaces of Giardia lamblia trophozoites demonstrate variable expression of a set of cysteine-rich surface proteins, called variant-specific surface proteins (VSP). The cloned Giardia line, WBA6, expresses a 170 kD VSP (VSPA6 or CRP170) which contains approximately 18 to 23 copies of a 65 amino acid repeat. We have cloned the expressed vspA6 gene containing 23 repeats from a genomic library as well as copies...
