ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to D. immitis Gp29 proteins, nucleic acid molecules having sequences that encode such proteins, antibodies raised against such proteins and inhibitors of D. immitis glutathione peroxidase. The present invention also includes methods to obtain such nucleic acid molecules, proteins, antibodies and inhibitors. The present invention also includes therapeutic compositions comprising such nucleic acid molecules, proteins, antibodies and inhibitors as well as their use to protect animals from disease caused by parasitic helminths, such as heartworm.
