The role of surface glycoconjugates in Leishmania midgut attachment examined by competitive binding assays and experimental development in sand flies [PDF]
, 2013 SUMMARY Binding of promastigotes to the sand fly midgut epithelium is regarded as an essential part of the Leishmania life cycle in the vector. Among Leishmania surface molecules putatively involved in attachment to the sand fly midgut, two GPI-anchored ...

Stage-specific proteinases ofLeishmania mexicana mexicanapromastigotes [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1992 Four distinct bands of cysteine proteinase activity were detected when stationary-phase populations of Leishmania mexicana mexicana were subjected to gelatin-SDS-PAGE. The highest mobility band contained at least three isoforms separable by mono Q anion exchange chromatography.
