General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction overexpression of a non-functional mutant causes a reduction in heme A content. This hindrance in the heme A synthesis provokes a reduction on CcO activity and, in consequence, an impairment on Trypanosoma cruzi survival, proliferation and infectivity Trypanosoma cruzi
