Extensive Polymorphism and Evidence of Immune Selection in a Highly Dominant Antigen Recognized by Bovine CD8 T Cells Specific for Theileria annulata
Although parasite strain-restricted CD8 T cell responses have been described for several protozoa, the precise role of antigenic variability in immunity is poorly understood. The tick-borne protozoan parasiteTheileria annulatainfects leukocytes and causes an acute, often fatal lymphoproliferative di...
