physiological function | in a CPB-deficient mutant, both SNARE proteins VAMP3 and VAMP8 are down-modulated in a CPB-dependent manner. Expression of the virulence-associated GPI-anchored metalloprotease GP63 is inhibited in the absence of CPB. Expression of GP63 in the CPB-deficient mutant is sufficient to down-modulate VAMP3 and VAMP8. Episomal expression of GP63 enables the CPB-deficient mutant to establish infection in macrophages | Leishmania mexicana |
