H+-translocating pyrophosphatases in protozoan parasites

Sign Up to like & get
recommendations! Published in 2024 at "Parasitology Research"

DOI: 10.1007/s00436-024-08362-3

Abstract: Integral membrane pyrophosphatases (mPPases) hydrolyze pyrophosphate. This enzymatic mechanism is coupled with the pumping of H + and/or Na + across membranes, which can be either K + -dependent or K + -independent. Inorganic proton–translocating pyrophosphatases (H + -PPases) can transport protons across cell membranes… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2020.117453

Abstract: The protozoan parasites are evolutionarily divergent, unicellular eukaryotic pathogens representing one of the essential sources of parasitic diseases. These parasites significantly affect the economy and cause public health burdens globally. Protozoan parasites share many cellular… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.jproteome.5c00015

Abstract: Apicomplexan protozoan parasite (Bm) and spirochete are tick-transmitted pathogens that cause babesiosis and Lyme disease and increasingly cause coinfections. More pronounced Lyme arthritis occurs during the acute phase of coinfection compared to alone. In susceptible… read more here.
