title: [Screening for relevant proteins involved in adhesion of Cryptosporidium parvum sporozoites to host cells].
abstract: The Cryptosporidium parvum T7 phage display library was screened by using Caco-2 cells. Five specific gene fragments were identified by blasting sequences in GenBank, one of which encoding the CP2 protein was previously identified as a surface molecule of sporozoites and involved in parasite invasion. The others are hypothetic proteins with unknown functions. Bioinformatic analysis of these proteins indicated that they may be involved in the host-parasite interactions.
