Disruption of mannose activation in Leishmania mexicana: GDP-mannose pyrophosphorylase is required for virulence, but not for viability
In eukaryotes, the enzyme GDP-mannose pyrophosphorylase (GDPMP) is essential for the formation of GDP-mannose, the central activated mannose donor in glycosylation reactions. Deletion of its gene is lethal in fungi, most likely as a consequence of disrupted glycoconjugate biosynthesis. Furthermore,...
