Delving in folate metabolism in the parasite Leishmania major through a chemogenomic screen and methotrexate selection

Most of our understanding of folate metabolism in the parasite Leishmania is derived from studies of resistance to the antifolate methotrexate (MTX). A chemical mutagenesis screen of L. major Friedlin and selection for resistance to MTX led to twenty mutants with a 2- to 400-fold decrease in MTX sus...
