Abstract
cDNA clones for homologues of a molecular chaperone of the endoplasmic reticulum called the immunoglobulin heavy-chain binding protein (BiP) have been isolated from Eimeria maxima and E. tenella sporozoite cDNA libraries. The E. tenella cDNA clone is of full length and has a predicted N-terminal signal sequence of approximately 30 amino acids and a C-terminal tetrapeptide sequence (His-Asp-Glu-Leu) for retention in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum.
