Inhibition of trypsin expression in Lutzomyia longipalpis using RNAi enhances the survival of Leishmania
BACKGROUND: Leishmania parasites must overcome several barriers to achieve transmission by their sand fly vectors. One of the earliest threats is exposure to enzymes during blood meal digestion. Trypsin-like enzymes appear to be detrimental to parasite survival during the very early phase of develop...
