Overexpression of a single Leishmania major gene enhances parasite infectivity in vivo and in vitro

We identified a Leishmania major-specific gene that can partly compensate for the loss of virulence observed for L. major HSP100 null mutants. The gene, encoding a 46 kD protein of unknown function and lineage, also enhances the virulence of wild type L. major upon overexpression. Surprisingly, the...
