Genome-wide analysis of peptidase content and expression in a virulent and attenuated Babesia bovis strain pair

Identifying virulence determinants in Apicomplexan parasites remains a major gap in knowledge for members within this phylum. We hypothesized that peptidases would segregate with virulence between a virulent parent Babesia bovis strain and an attenuated daughter strain derived by rapid in vivo passa...
