Molecular characterization of a synthetic neutralizing antibody targeting p67 of Theileria parva. [PDF]
Protein SciAbstract The Theileria parva sporozoite surface antigen p67 is a target of the bovine humoral immune response that generates antibodies capable of providing protection against subsequent infection. As a result, p67 has been the subject of efforts aimed at the development of an anti‐sporozoite subunit vaccine.

Characterization of the Theileria parva sporozoite proteome. [PDF]
Int J Parasitol, 2018 East Coast fever is a lymphoproliferative disease caused by the tick-borne protozoan parasite Theileria parva. The sporozoite stage of this parasite, harboured and released from the salivary glands of the tick Rhipicephalus appendiculatus during feeding, invades and establishes infection in bovine lymphocytes.

Approaches to vaccination against Theileria parva and Theileria annulata [PDF]
Parasite Immunology, 2016 SummaryDespite having different cell tropism, the pathogenesis and immunobiology of the diseases caused by Theileria parva and Theileria annulata are remarkably similar. Live vaccines have been available for both parasites for over 40 years, but although they provide strong protection, practical disadvantages have limited their widespread application ...

Lymphocytes and macrophages are infected by Theileria equi, but T cells and B cells are not required to establish infection in vivo. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Theileria equi has a biphasic life cycle in horses, with a period of intraleukocyte development followed by patent erythrocytic parasitemia that causes acute and sometimes fatal hemolytic disease. Unlike Theileria spp. that infect cattle (Theileria parva

Genome analysis of Theileria parva
Parasitology Today, 1993 Recent technological developments in the field of genome analyses have advanced our knowledge of the structures of prokaryotic and eukoryotic genomes. Examples of these range from small bacterial genomes, such as Escherichia coli, to the more complex genomes of Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila, humans and mouse.
