Research ArticleOpen accessCreation of Tetracycline Regulatable Knockouts of ORFF Gene from the LD1 Locus of Leishmania donovaniBindu Sukumaran, Manju Jain, Peter J. Myler et al.The tetracycline repressor/operator system was adapted for use in Leishmania donovani. In order to investigate the possible importance and function of open reading frame F (ORFF) in Leishmania donovani strain AG83 that has a single copy of ORFF in the LD1 locus on chromosome 35, we have attempted to generate tetracycline regulatable single allele mutants of ORFF. Leishmania cells expressing … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,832 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessRole of Biopterin Transporter (BT1) Gene on Growth and Infectivity of LeishmaniaManju Jain, Vandana S. Dole, Peter J. Myler et al.Leishmania are known to be auxotrophic for pteridines that are known to play a critical role in the parasites survival. In the present work the role of biopterin transporter in the growth of the parasite and infectivity in to macrophages has been worked out. The role of biopterin transporter in the susceptibility of Leishmania to antimonial compounds has also been … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,040 accessesView PDF Cite
