Antigenic Variation

Information about Antigenic Variation: characteristics, related genes and pathways, plus antibodies you can use for research. This page is being enriched constantly, if you see some information you would like this page to include please send your suggestions to us.

Overview of Antigenic Variation

Most recent studies have shown that Antigenic Variation shares some biological mechanisms with cell-cycle, dna-recombination, dna-repair, dna-replication, drug-resistance, gene-conversion, gene-silencing, glycosylation, humoral-immune-response, immune-response, localization, pathogenesis, phagocytosis, regulation-of-gene-expression, secretion, translation, transport, transposition, tropism, virulence.

Among the many pathways, these few ones have gauged particular interests from scientists studying Antigenic Variation, and have been seen in publications frequently: cell-cycle, dna-recombination, dna-repair, dna-replication, drug-resistance, gene-conversion, gene-silencing, glycosylation, humoral-immune-response, immune-response, localization, pathogenesis, phagocytosis, regulation-of-gene-expression, secretion, translation, transport, transposition, tropism, virulence

Quite a number of genes have been found to play important roles in Antigenic Variation, such as A4GALT, ABCC8, AKAP4, APC, B3GALNT1, CD36, CD4, GLUL, GYPA, ICAM1, Nucks1, PMEL, PRF1, PRM1, RAD51, RPLP1, STS, TNF.

In a later update, we will include information such as current drugs and therapy solutions as well as on-going and past clinical trials for this pathway. Plesae stay updated.
