The bovine CD8+ T-cell response to Theileria parva displays epitope immunodominance and oligoclonality
Species: RuminantsTheileria parva is an intracellular protozoal parasite which causes East Coast Fever (ECF), a major constraint to cattle production in eastern and southern Africa. Characteristics of the protective CD8+ T-cell response against T. parva suggest it is focused on a limited number of i...
