Recombinant Expression and Localization of Schistosoma mansoni Cathepsin L1 Support Its Role in the Degradation of Host Hemoglobin

Cysteine proteinases expressed by schistosomes appear to play key roles in the digestion of host hemoglobin, the principal source of amino acid nutrients utilized by these parasites. We have shown previously that the predominant cysteine proteinase activity in soluble extracts and excretory/secretor...
