The Type Specific Antigen (TSA) Family [Function: Unknown] Seed alignment | Full alignment in OMPdb | |
This family consists of several antigenic variants in Rickettsia tsutsugamushi, and a type-specific antigen (TSA) of 56-kilodaltons located on the rickettsial surface is responsible for the variation. TSA proteins are probably integral membrane proteins (description adapted from Pfam database). | |
