Pyroglutamyl peptidase type I from Trypanosoma brucei: A new virulence factor from African trypanosomes that de-blocks regulatory peptides in the plasma of infected hosts
Peptidases of parasitic protozoans are emerging as novel virulence factors and therapeutic targets in parasitic infections. A trypanosome-derived aminopeptidase that exclusively hydrolysed substrates with Glp (pyroglutamic acid) in P1 was purified 9248-fold from the plasma of rats infected with Tryp...
