"nucleic acid molecule, recombinant vector, polypeptide, eukaryotic amino acid racemase, antibodies, host cell, methods for making polypeptide, for detecting a parasite and eukaryotic protein for screening active molecules, for detecting and quantifying the presence or absence of a sequence, to inhibit a eukaryotic protein, to produce a recombinant eukaryotic and d-amino acid amino acid racemase and to prevent or inhibit infection, plasmid, immunological complex, kit for detecting a parasite, polynucleotide fragment, eukaryotic protein, processes for making a purified eukaryotic protein, for detecting an infection and for screening for a molecule, immunizing composition, vaccine composition, any molecular modification of the gene or fragment of the gene, use of any molecular or biochemical modification of the enzymatic activity of racemase, and any molecule or compound ". A method for preventing or inhibiting infection by a parasite or virus in vivo comprises administering to a human in need thereof a parasite or virus mitogen in a sub-mitogenic amount to induce a protective immune response against the parasite or virus in the human. |
