Cloning and Characterization of a Schistosoma mansoni cDNA Clone with a Specific Antigenic Expression during Development in a Vertebrate Host

Approximately 2.0 x 10 cDNA clones of an Schistosoma mansoni lgt11 cDNA library were screened in duplicate with serum from infected mice corresponding to distinct phases of infection. A cDNA clone (7/1) was isolated and recognized only by seven week serum. The clone was subcloned in pGEX-2T and West...
