| dc.description.abstract | In this report, an immunodominant antigen called BgIRA from Babesia gibsoni is identified and described. A highly repetitive antigen was screened from a cDNA library. The genomic BgIRA gene exists as single cope gene and contains 10 introns. BgIRA plays a dominant role in the immune response in dogs infected with B. gibsoni. The specificity and sensitivity of the rBgIRA in an ELISA indicated that this antigen might be useful in a diagnostic test. | en |
