General Information of Binding Target of SBP (BTS) (ID: ST00327)
BTS Name
Variant surface glycoprotein
Synonyms
VSG, atypical, putative
BTS Type
Protein
Organism
Trypanosoma brucei brucei (strain 927/4 GUTat10.1)
Function
VSG forms a coat on the surface of the parasite. The trypanosome evades the immune response of the host by expressing a series of antigenically distinct VSGs from an estimated 1000 VSG genes.
