Abstract:Pneumocystis carinii is coated by abundant protein, as major surface glycoprotein(MSG), P55, A12, MSG-related, PRT1,or Meu10. Pneumocystis is an important opportunistic pathogen that causes severe pneumonia. The study of Pneumocystis carinii major protein is important for vaccine development and for Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia prevention.
