A Plant like Cytochrome P450 Subfamily CYP710C1 Gene in Leishmania donovani Encodes Sterol C-22 Desaturase and its Over-expression Leads to Resistance to Amphotericin B

3 Apr 2019

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Leishmania donovani is a protozoan parasite, a primary causative agent of visceral leishmaniasis. Sterol produced via the mevalonate pathway, show differences in composition across biological kingdoms. The specific occurrence of Δ22-unsaturated sterols, containing a double bond at the C-22 position in the side chain occurs in fungi as ergosterol and as stigmasterol in plants. In the present study, we...
