Variant antigen diversity in Trypanosoma vivax is not driven by recombination

Trypanosoma rely on variant surface glycoprotein (VSG) to escape host immunity, but mechanisms generating antigenic diversity of VSG are poorly understood. Here, Silva-Pereira et al. show that T. vivax has a limited antigenic repertoire compared to T. brucei and that recombination plays little role...
