Identification of transporters essential for survival of <i>Leishmania</i> promastigotes in the digestive tract of sand flies
2025-07-10
Abstract excerpt
Leishmania amastigotes ingested by female phlebotomine sand flies are exposed to a harsh and dynamic environment that differs markedly from the intracellular niche in the mammalian host in temperature, pH and nutrient availability. Membrane transporter proteins, channels and pumps play a crucial role in maintaining cellular physiology under changing environments. A systematic loss-of-function screen of the L. mex...
