<i>Schistosoma mansoni</i> α-N-acetylgalactosaminidase (SmNAGAL) regulates coordinated parasite movement and egg production

2021-07-26

Abstract excerpt

α-galactosidase (α-GAL) and α-N-acetylgalactosaminidase (α-NAGAL) are two glycosyl hydrolases responsible for maintaining cellular homeostasis by regulating glycan substrates on proteins and lipids. Mutations in the human genes encoding either enzyme lead to neurological and neuromuscular impairments seen in both Fabry- and Schindler/Kanzaki-diseases. Here, we investigate whether the parasitic blood fluke Schisto...
