Recombinant production and characterisation of two Fasciola hepatica cathepsin L proteases [PDF]
The cysteine proteases of the liver fluke, Fasciola hepatica, are of great importance to the virulence of the organism. Previous work has established the involvement of these enzymes in catabolism, migration through host tissues and defence against host ...
