A broadly active fucosyltransferase <i>LmjFUT1</i> whose mitochondrial localization and catalytic activity is essential in the parasitic protozoan <i>Leishmania</i>

2021-05-10

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Glycoconjugates play major roles in the infectious cycle of the trypanosomatid parasite Leishmania . While GDP-Fucose synthesis is essential (Guo et al 2017), fucosylated glycoconjugates have not been reported in Leishmania major . Four predicted fucosyltransferases appear conventionally targeted to the secretory pathway; SCA1/2 play a role in side-chain modifications of lipophosphoglycan, w...
