Structural insights into a 20.8-kDa tegumental-allergen-like (TAL) protein from Clonorchis sinensis

Abstract Survival of Clonorchis sinensis, a cause of human clonorchiasis, requires tegument proteins, which are localized to the tegumental outer surface membrane. These proteins play an important role in a host response and parasite survival. Thus, these proteins are interesting molecular targets f...
