The evolution of TEP1, an exceptionally polymorphic immunity gene in Anopheles gambiae

BACKGROUND: Host-parasite coevolution can result in balancing selection, which maintains genetic variation in the susceptibility of hosts to parasites. It has been suggested that variation in a thioester-containing protein called TEP1 (AGAP010815) may alter the ability of Anopheles mosquitoes to tra...
