Role of the polymorphic immunodominant molecule in entry of Theileria parva sporozoites into bovine lymphocytes

Theileria parva is a tick-transmitted apicomplexan parasite that infects cattle and African buffalo. In cattle, it causes a fatal lymphoproliferative disease called East Coast fever. The polymorphic immunodominant molecule (PIM) is expressed by two stages of the parasite: the sporozoite, which is in...
