Ligands: BR, NAG Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function M4T0T6_9TRYP VSG forms a coat on the surface of the parasite. The trypanosome evades the immune response of the host by expressing a series of antigenically distinct VSGs from an estimated 1000 VSG genes.[ARBA:ARBA00002523]
