Knockout of <i>Babesia bovis rad51</i> ortholog and its complementation by expression from the BbACc3 artificial chromosome platform
2019-04-11
Abstract excerpt
Babesia bovis establishes persistent infections of long duration in cattle, despite the development of effective anti-disease immunity. One mechanism used by the parasite to achieve persistence is rapid antigenic variation of the VESA1 cytoadhesion ligand through segmental gene conversion (SGC), a phenomenon thought to be a form of homologous recombination (HR). To begin investigation of the enzymatic basis for SG...
