Characterization of the catalytic subunit of Trypanosoma cruzi cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase

The catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase from Trypanosoma cruzi epimastigote forms was purified by ionic-exchange chromatography, affinity chromatography and sucrose gradient centrifugation. Upon polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate, the p...
