Effects of buthionine sulfoximine and benznidazole upon Trypanothione and Metallothionein proteins in Trypanosoma cruzi

ABSTRACT: Proteins rich in sulfhydryl groups, such as metallothionein, are present in several strains of the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiological agent of Chagas’ disease. Metallothionein-like protein concentrations ranged from 5.1 to 13.2 pmol/mg protein depending on the parasite strain and...
