Identification of inhibitors for the transmembrane Trypanosoma cruzi eIF2α kinase relevant for parasite proliferation
The TcK2 protein kinase of Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease, is structurally similar to the human kinase PERK, which phosphorylates the initiation factor eIF2α and, in turn, inhibits translation initiation. We have previously shown that absence of TcK2 kinase impairs parasite...
