Characterization of the <it>Trichomonas vaginalis </it>surface-associated AP65 and binding domain interacting with trichomonads and host cells
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>AP65 is a prominent adhesin of <it>Trichomonas vaginalis </it>that mediates binding of parasites to host vaginal epithelial cells (VECs). AP65 with no secretion signal sequence, membrane targeting peptide, and anchoring m...
