Tick cell lines play an important role in research on ticks and tick-borne pathogenic and symbiotic microorganisms. In an attempt to derive continuous Dermacentor reticulatus cell lines, embryo-derived primary cell cultures were set up from eggs laid by field ticks originally collected as unfed adults in The Netherlands and maintained for up to 16 months. After several months, it became evident that...
The major antigenic protein 1 (MAP1) of the tick-borne rickettsial pathogen Cowdria ruminantium is encoded by a multigene family containing conserved and variable genes. The part of a locus containing the map1 multigene family that was characterized contained three homologous, but non-identical map1 genes, designated map1-2, map1-1, and map1. Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction was used...
