General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function Leishmania braziliensis promastigotes and amastigotes overexpressing cysteine synthase and cystathionine beta-synthase show enhanced ability to resist oxidative stress compared to that of nontransfected cells, resulting in a phenotype far more resistant to treatment with the pentavalent form of antimony in vitro Leishmania braziliensis
