Variability and Action Mechanism of a Family of Anticomplement Proteins in Ixodes ricinus
BACKGROUND: Ticks are blood feeding arachnids that characteristically take a long blood meal. They must therefore counteract host defence mechanisms such as hemostasis, inflammation and the immune response. This is achieved by expressing batteries of salivary proteins coded by multigene families. ME...
