Cysteine and Aspartyl Proteases Contribute to Protein Digestion in the Gut of Freshwater Planaria
Proteases perform numerous vital functions in flatworms, many of which are likely to be conserved throughout the phylum Platyhelminthes. Within this phylum are several parasitic worms that are often poorly characterized due to their complex life-cycles and lack of responsiveness to genetic manipulat...
