Insulinase like protease 1 contributes to macrogamont formation in <i>Cryptosporidium parvum</i>
2020-12-04
Abstract excerpt
The apicomplexan parasite Cryptosporidium parvum contains an expanded family of 22 insulinase like proteases (INS), a feature that contrasts with their otherwise streamlined genome. Here we examined the function of INS1, which is most similar to the human insulinase protease that cleaves a variety of small peptide substrates. INS1 is a M16A clan member and contains a signal peptide, an N-terminal domain with the...
