Trypanosoma evansi: Molecular Characterization and Validation of a Cathepsin-L-like Peptidase as a Potential Therapeutic Target
C1A cysteine peptidases (CPs) are major contributors to host–parasite crosstalk and have been proposed as anti-trypanosomal chemotherapeutic targets. Trypanosoma evansi is the most widespread animal trypanosome of African origin causing the trypanosomosis known as “Surra” or “derrengadera”. Gelatin zymography combined...
