Anopheles gambiae TEP1 forms a complex with the coiled-coil domain of LRIM1/APL1C following a conformational change in the thioester domain.
The complement-like protein thioester-containing protein 1 (TEP1) is a key factor in the immune response of the malaria vector Anopheles gambiae to pathogens. Multiple allelic variants of TEP1 have been identified in laboratory strains and in the field, and are correlated with distinct immunophenoty...
