Characterization of a novel secretory spherical body protein in Babesia orientalis and Babesia orientalis-infected erythrocytes

Abstract Background The spherical body, a membrane bound organelle localized in the apical organelle complex, is unique to Babesia and Theileria spp. The spherical body proteins (SBPs) secreted by spherical bodies include SBP1, SBP2, SBP3 and SBP4. Up to now, only SBP3 has been characterized in Babe...
