Sequence Variation and Immunologic Cross-Reactivity among Babesia bovis Merozoite Surface Antigen 1 Proteins from Vaccine Strains and Vaccine Breakthrough Isolates

The Babesia bovis merozoite surface antigen 1 (MSA-1) is an immunodominant membrane glycoprotein that is the target of invasion-blocking antibodies. While antigenic variation has been demonstrated in MSA-1 among strains from distinct geographical areas, the extent of sequence variation within a regi...
