General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function DYRK1 overexpressing parasites display a decrease in proliferation and in cell cycle re-entry of arrested cells. Parasites lacking DYRK1 display distinct fitness phenotypes in logarithmic and stationary growth phases. In logarithmic growth phase, DYRK1-/- parasites proliferate better than control lines, while in stationary growth phase, DYRK1-/- parasites round up, accumulate vacuoles and lipid bodies and display subtle but consistent differences in lipid composition. They express less metacyclic-enriched transcripts, display increased sensitivity to complement lysis and a significant reduction in survival within peritoneal macrophages Leishmania infantum
