Abstract
⺠There are at least seven eg95-related genes in the genotype of the G6 genotype of Echinococcus granulosus. ⺠These genes appear to encode three proteins. ⺠These proteins show considerable differences with the EG95 vaccine from G1. ⺠EG95 proteins from G6 may have different antigenic epitopes compared with the current vaccine. ⺠Data presented provide the information for the development of a G6 genotype-specific vaccine.
