physiological function ethanolamine phosphotransferase-null parasites are largely devoid of plasmenylethanolamine and fully viable in regular medium but fail to proliferate in the absence of fetal bovine serum.

Ethanolamine phosphotransferase-null mutants also show attenuated virulence in BALB/c mice Leishmania major
