Tubulin from Trypanosoma brucei was purified to near homogeneity using a protocol which involved treatment with urea with subsequent renaturation and was then used to immunize mice. Renatured tubulin further purified by SDS-PAGE (denatured), synthetic tubulin peptides (STP), and rat brain tubulin (RbTub) were also used. Immunized mice were challenged with T. brucei, Trypanosoma congolense or Tr...
