Comparison of tsa417-like variant-specific surface protein (VSP) genes in Giardia intestinalis and identification of a novel locus in genetic group II isolates.

Parasitology - 1 Nov 1998

Ey P L, Darby J M, Mayrhofer G

Abstract excerpt

A gene (vsp417-3A-II) encoding a new member of the variant-specific surface protein (VSP) family of Giardia is described. Vsp417-3A-II is detected exclusively in isolates belonging to the genetic Assemblage A/Group II sublineage of G. intestinalis, and it is closely related to a previously characterized VSP gene (tsp11, herein renamed vsp417-2A-I) found in Group I isolates of G. intestinalis. Analysis of DNA...
