Using proteomics approach possible amino acid sequence of those antigens was elucidated and showed sequence similarity with several proteins like signal recognition particle protein, galactose binding lectin, zinc finger motif,
neurotransmitter gated ion channel, transmembrane protein, etc. from the genomic database of several
nematode species. To investigate the function of the identified nematode genes, RNA interference could
be used to reduce the expression of these selected genes and determine their importance for nematode
development, survival or parasitism.
