Identification of Bola Class I molecules restricting cytotoxic T lymphocyte responses to a theileria parva vaccine candidate.
Theileria parva is an intracellular protozoan parasite that infects and transforms bovine lymphocytes, causing a severe Iymphoproliferative disease, East Coast fever (ECF). A robust immunity against ECF acquired after recovery is thought to be conferred by cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) specific to...
