Targeted mutagenesis in <i>Ehrlichia canis</i> deleting the phage head-to-tail connector protein gene and its assessment as a vaccine candidate preventing canine ehrlichiosis

2026-01-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Ehrlichia canis is primarily a Rhipicephalus sanguineus tick-borne rickettsial pathogen initially identified as causing canine monocytic ehrlichiosis, and infections in people have also been reported in Venezuela, Mexico, and parts of Europe. It is of high importance to have a vaccine suitable in protecting the canine host, which will aid in lessening E. canis infections also in people. Gene i...
