The Glycan Structure of T. cruzi mucins Depends on the Host. Insights on the Chameleonic Galactose
Trypanosoma cruzi, the protozoa that causes Chagas disease in humans, is transmitted by insects from the Reduviidae family. The parasite has developed the ability to change the structure of the surface molecules, depending on the host. Among them, the mucins are the most abundant glycoproteins. Stru...
