Molecular characterization and antigenic properties of a novel Babesia gibsoni glutamic acid-rich protein (BgGARP)

- A novel glutamic acid-rich protein of Babesia gibsoni (BgGARP) was identified.
- An ELISA using rBgGARP to detect B. gibsoni-infection was established.
- BgGARP could be a potential marker for the serodiagnosis of B. gibsoni infection.
