Abstract:
Microneme protein 2 ( Mic 2) is the structural protein of microneme of Eimeria spp.The secretion of Mic 2 is very important during the process of invading the host cells.In this study, we used a monoclonal antibody specific to E. tenella Mic 2 ( EtMic2) to detect the Mic 2 location in several Eimeria spp., i.e., E.tenella, E.mitis, E.stiedai and E. irresidua, by indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA).The Mic 2 was located in the anterior region of the sporozoites among all Eimeria spp., which indicated that Mic 2 is highly conserved among Eimeria spp.and could be used as a marker protein when studying the location of Eimeria spp.proteins.
