Abstract excerpt
The major surface glycoprotein (MSG) of Pneumocystis carinii is encoded by a family of related but distinct genes distributed throughout the P. carinii genome. Previous reports of the genomic and mRNA MSG structure suggested that there was a highly conserved 5'-untranslated region and a highly va...
