Leucine aminopeptidase of the human blood flukes, Schistosoma mansoni and Schistosoma japonicum [PDF]

International Journal for Parasitology, 2004
An array of schistosome endoproteases involved in the digestion of host hemoglobin to absorbable peptides has been described, but the exoprotease responsible for catabolising these peptides to amino acids has yet to be identified. By searching the public databases we found that Schistosoma mansoni and Schistosoma japonicum express a gene encoding a ...
