ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides compositions of peptides and polynucleotides encoding the peptides, which peptides are useful for generating an immunological response in an individual and in therapeutic and diagnostic applications of infections due to pathogenicCoccidioidesspp. fungi, such asC. immitisorC. posadasii.
