DIFFERENCES IN CYSTEINE PROTEASE ACTIVITY IN SCHISTOSOMA MANSONI-RESISTANT AND -SUSCEPTIBLE BIOMPHALARIA GLABRATA AND CHARACTERIZATION OF THE HEPATOPANCREAS CATHEPSIN B FULL-LENGTH cDNA

Biomphalaria glabrata snails are known to display a wide range of susceptibility phenotypes to Schistosoma mansoni infection depending on the genetics of both the snail and the invading parasite. Evidence exists for a role of hydrolytic enzymes in the defense of molluscs against invading parasites....
