2.9 ANGSTROMS RESOLUTION STRUCTURE OF THE N-TERMINAL DOMAIN OF A VARIANT SURFACE GLYCOPROTEIN FROM TRYPANOSOMA BRUCEI
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 2231728
Function
[VSM2_TRYBB] 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.
About this Structure
1vsg is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Trypanosoma brucei brucei. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
