A Structural Classification of the Variant Surface Glycoproteins of the African Trypanosome

S. Dakovic, J. P. Zeelen, A. Gkeka, M. Chandra, C. Foti, M. van Straaten, E. P. Vlachou, F. Aresta-Branco, F. N. Papavasiliou, J. Verdi, C. E. Stebbins

The paper uses experimental and computational methods to classify VSG proteins in African trypanosomes, revealing structural and conformational diversity that contributes to immune evasion.

Immunodominant surface epitopes power immune evasion in the African trypanosome

A. Gkeka, F. Aresta-Branco, G. Triller, E. P. Vlachou, M. Lilic, P. D. B. Olinares, K. Perez, B. Chait, R. Blatnik, T. Ruppert, C. E. Stebbins, F. N. Papavasiliou

The paper shows that immune responses to African trypanosome VSGs are focused on immunodominant epitopes, enabling immune evasion through epitope variation.
