<i>Trypanosoma cruzi</i> VDU deubiquitinase mediates surface protein trafficking and infectivity
2023-04-17
Abstract excerpt
Ubiquitylation is a post-translational modification promoting protein degradation. Within the endomembrane system ubiquitylation marks proteins for lysosomal processing. Deubiquitinases (DUBs) cleave ubiquitin from modified proteins and, in the case of surface proteins, prevent lysosomal targeting and thus play a major role in controlling turnover. In Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiological agent of Chagas disease, ac...
