B-Cell Epitope Mapping of the VapA Protein of Rhodococcus equi: Implications for Early Detection of R. equi Disease in Foals

Linear B-cell epitopes of the Rhodococcus equi virulence-associated protein (VapA) were mapped using a synthetic peptide bank in this study. The peptides were screened in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) with a total of 70 sera from foals with current R. equi disease (51 sera), as well a...
