Two distinct genes encoding single domain, ATP-binding cassette transport protein homologues of Theileria parva were cloned and sequenced. Neither of the genes is tandemly duplicated. One gene, TpABCI, encodes a predicted protein of 593 amino acids with an N-terminal hydrophobic domain containing...

The nucleotide sequences of the large subunit ribosomal RNA coding genes within the two single copy ribosomal DNA transcription units of a cloned Theileria parva isolate from a buffalo were determined. The two LSU rRNA coding units differed by 11 nucleotide substitutions and two deletions of 1 an...

Tick salivary gland proteins are responsible for suppression/modulation of host immune responses and subsets of such genes whose expression is modified by Theileria parva infection would be candidates for inclusion in anti-tick/anti-pathogen combination vaccines. We used subtractive hybridisation...
