This invention relates to a novel DNA encoding Eimeria glyceroaldehyde-3-phosphate
dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and recombinant GAPDH protein expressed using the DNA sequence.
The present invention further provides the recombinant vector or virus containing
this DNA. The chickens immunized by the recombinant virus or recombinant GAPDH
protein described herein can be induced immunity against coccidiosis.
