A novel strategy for the identification of antigens that are recognised by bovine MHC class I restricted cytotoxic T cells in a protozoan infection using reverse vaccinology (2007)

Graham, Simon P, Honda, Yoshikazu, Pellé, Roger, Mwangi, Duncan M, Glew, E Jane, De Villiers, Etienne P, ...

Abstract Background Immunity against the bovine protozoan parasite Theileria parva has previously been shown to be mediated through lysis of parasite-infected cells by MHC class I restricted CD8 +...

Analysis of the transcriptome of the protozoan Theileria parva using MPSS reveals that the majority of genes are transcriptionally active in the schizont stage (2005)

Bishop, Richard, Shah, Trushar, Pelle, Roger, Hoyle, David, Pearson, Terry, Haines, Lee, ...

Massively parallel signature sequencing (MPSS) was used to analyze the transcriptome of the intracellular protozoan Theileria parva. In total 1 095 000, 20 bp sequences representing 4371...

Immunity against the bovine intracellular protozoan parasite Theileria parva has been shown to be mediated by CD8 T cells. Six antigens targeted by CD8 T cells from T. parva-immune cattle of...

Comparative genomics of the Rab protein family in Apicomplexan parasites

Langsley, Gordon, Van Noort, Vera, Carret, Céline, Meissner, Markus, De Villiers, Etienne P., Bishop, Richard, ...

Rab genes encode a subgroup of small GTP-binding proteins within the ras super-family that regulate targeting and fusion of transport vesicles within the secretory and endocytic pathways. These genes...
