Abstract
Trypanosoma cruzi extracellular amastigotes (EA) from G strain (T. cruzi I) show high infectivity towards host cells in vitro when compared to the traditionally more infectious CL strain (T. cruzi VI). We have performed a DNA microarray from EA from G and CL strain, in order to identify components that would modulate infectivity of these strains. It was identified a 21 kDa protein that up…
