Schistosoma mansoni: expression of Fes-like tyrosine kinase SmFes in the tegument and terebratorium suggests its involvement in host penetration.

Parasites. Identification of SmFes orthologues in other schistosoma species. Antibodies. Western blots. Immunofluorescence studies. Comparative protein structure modeling. SmFes homologues in other schistosome species. SmFes protein is differentially expressed during the parasite life cycle. Localization of SmFes in cercariae, schistosomula and miracidia. The role of the miracidial terebratorium. Modeling of the SmFes protein.
