The Diverse Calpain Family in Trypanosomatidae: Functional Proteins Devoid of Proteolytic Activity?
Calpains are calcium-dependent cysteine peptidases that were originally described in mammals and, thereafter, their homologues were identified in almost all known living organisms. The deregulated activity of these peptidases is associated with several pathologies and, consequently, huge efforts hav...
