Genetic validation of Leishmania genes essential for amastigote survival in vivo using N-myristoyltransferase as a model
BACKGROUND: Proving that specific genes are essential for the intracellular viability of Leishmania parasites within macrophages remains a challenge for the identification of suitable targets for drug development. This is especially evident in the absence of a robust inducible expression system or f...
