CC   -!- FUNCTION: Responsible for the antigenic diversity for host adaptation.
CC       Expression in E.coli of a construct containing vlpD, vlpE, and vlpF
CC       yields antigenically distinguishable products corresponding to each
CC       gene. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:7559353}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane {ECO:0000305}; Lipid-anchor
CC       {ECO:0000305}.
CC   -!- MISCELLANEOUS: The numbers of repeats can vary and is one of the basis
CC       of the antigenic diversity.
