  • DNA encoding a cell membrane glycoprotein of a tick gut
    Patent number: 6235283
    Abstract: This invention relates to an antigen isolated from the cattle tick Boophilus microplus and to the gene coding for that antigen and to the protein product of that gene. The antigen when used in part or in entirety as an immunogen administered to cattle as a vaccine results in the production by the cattle of an immune response which is capable of damaging ticks feeding on vaccinated cattle to such an extent that the survival of such ticks is decreased and/or the reproductive capacity of the ticks is decreased to such an extent that the antigen coded for by the gene can be used as an effective vaccine against said ticks.
