Probing the system behind variable antigen expression in animal pathogen Trypanosoma congolense
Antigenic variation is a strategy adopted by many pathogens to evade the host immune system. African trypanosomes, in particular Trypanosoma brucei, are models for antigenic variation in parasites. These organisms periodically switch the identity of their major surface protein, variable surface glyc...
