Genome Plasticity in Cultured Leishmania donovani: Comparison of Early and Late Passages
3 Jul 2018
Abstract excerpt
Leishmania donovani possesses a complex heteroxenic life cycle where infective metacyclic promastigotes are pre-adapted to infect their host and cope up with intracellular stress. Exploiting the similarities between cultured and sandfly derived promastigotes, we used early and late passage cultured promastigotes to show specific changes at genome level which compromise pathogen fitness reflected in gene...
