Structure of tyrosine aminotransferase fromLeishmania infantum [PDF]

Acta Crystallographica Section F Structural Biology Communications, 2014
The trypanosomatid parasiteLeishmania infantumis the causative agent of visceral leishmaniasis (VL), which is usually fatal unless treated. VL has an incidence of 0.5 million cases every year and is an important opportunistic co-infection in HIV/AIDS. Tyrosine aminotransferase (TAT) has an important role in the metabolism of trypanosomatids, catalyzing
