Echinococcus granulosus Antigen B Structure: Subunit Composition and Oligomeric States

Antigen B (AgB) is the major protein secreted by the Echinococcus granulosus metacestode and is involved in key host-parasite interactions during infection. The full comprehension of AgB functions depends on the elucidation of several structural aspects that remain unknown, such as its subunit compo...
