Abstract
Purified variant specific antigens of Trypanosoma brucei were shown to exist in solution as dimers, and occasionally as higher oligomers, as judged by gel filtration and by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis after treatment with bifunctional cross-linking reagents.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
