Spermidine is essential for normal proliferation of trypanosomatid protozoa

Mostrar todas las versiones(3)

Trypanosomatid parasites containing a metabolically unstable ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) are naturally resistant to high levels of α-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) because this ODC inhibitor, though causing a drastic reduction of intracellular putrescine, elicits only a moderate decrease of the sp...
