Abstract
Pathogen differences in host range are poorly understood at the molecular level even though even closely related pathogen species can have dramatically distinct host ranges. Here, we study two related parasite species that have a dramatic difference in their ability to infect mice. Here, we show that soluble proteins from these species determine one driver of this difference: induction of interferon gamma by cells of the innate immune system.
