Clathrins Are Involved in the Endocytosis of Host Cytosol in the Malaria Parasite. [PDF]
This study characterized clathrin function in hemoglobin uptake from host red blood cells via the malaria parasite's specific endocytosis machinery, cytostome. Clathrin heavy chain, clathrin light chain, and AP‐1 γ subunit were found associated with certain proteins known to be involved in cytostome function, and they were localized at the collars of ...

Cloning, purification and preliminary crystallographic analysis of the Helicobacter pylori leucyl aminopeptidase-bestatin complex. [PDF]
Helicobacter pylori is an important human pathogenic bacterium associated with numerous severe gastroduodenal diseases, including ulcers and gastric cancer. Cytosolic leucyl aminopeptidase (LAP) is an important housekeeping protein that is involved in peptide and protein turnover, catabolism of proteins and modulation of gene expression.

Cloning and Characterization of a Leucyl Aminopeptidase from Three Pathogenic Leishmania Species [PDF]
Aminopeptidases are emerging as exciting novel drug targets and vaccine candidates in parasitic infections. In this study, we describe for the first time an aminopeptidase from three highly pathogenic Leishmania species. Intronless genes encoding a leucyl aminopeptidase (lap) were cloned from Leishmania amazonensis, Leishmania donovani, and Leishmania ...
