Abstract

Baculovirus expression system expresses ESAG 6 and ESAG 7 of Trypanosoma brucei transferrin-binding proteins, separately and together, in insect cells. Transferrin-binding needs this coexpression of ESAG 6 and 7 in the heterologous system. Transferrin-binding activities are observed on the cell surface.
