Abstract excerpt
Metalloprotease gp63 (Leishmania donovani gp63 (Ldgp63)) is a critical virulence factor secreted by Leishmania However, how newly synthesized Ldgp63 exits the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and is secreted by this parasite is unknown. Here, we cloned, expressed, and characterized the GTPase LdSar1 and other COPII components like LdSec23, LdSec24, LdSec13, and LdSec31 from Leishmania to understand their role in ER...
