Abstract
Here we present a T7-driven, tetracycline-inducible system for protein expression in human pathogen Leishmania mexicana. The gene expression in this strain is tightly regulated and dose- and time-dependent. This system can be widely used by the parasitology community to analyze effects of genes of interest on biology, physiology and virulence of parasites causing cutaneous leishmaniases.Entities:
