A Novel Cadherin-like Protein Mediates Adherence to and Killing of Host Cells by the Parasite <named-content content-type="genus-species">Trichomonas vaginalis</named-content>

ABSTRACT Trichomonas vaginalis, a prevalent sexually transmitted parasite, adheres to and induces cytolysis of human mucosal epithelial cells. We have characterized a hypothetical protein, TVAG_393390, with predicted tertiary structure similar to that of mammalian cadherin proteins involved in cell-...
