L-arginine availability and arginase activity: Characterization of amino acid permease 3 in Leishmania amazonensis

BACKGROUND: Leishmania uses the amino acid L-arginine as a substrate for arginase, enzyme that produces urea and ornithine, last precursor of polyamine pathway. This pathway is used by the parasite to replicate and it is essential to establish the infection in the mammalian host. L-arginine is not s...
