Lysosomal phospholipase A1 in Trypanosoma cruzi: An enzyme with a possible role in the pathogenesis of Chagas' disease

We found that, as in African trypanosomes, endogenous phospholipase A1 (Plase A1) activity can catalyse extensive deacylation of phospholipids upon cell death in all life stages of Trypanosoma cruzi. A major lysosomal Plase A1 was purified and characterized. The enzyme products can explain the lesio...
