In this study, a cDNA encoding cyclophilin (CyP) of Gnathostoma spinigerum was cloned into a prokaryotic expression vector and expressed in Escherichia coli. The predicted molecular mass of the putative protein was 18.6. kDa, and the deduced amino acid sequence had 86, 84.8, 81.3 and 77.2% identity...
