Structural and Biochemical Characterization of Poly-ADP-ribose Polymerase from Trypanosoma brucei
Abstract Trypanosoma brucei is a unicellular parasite responsible for African trypanosomiasis or sleeping sickness. It contains a single PARP enzyme opposed to many higher eukaryotes, which have numerous PARPs. PARPs are responsible for a post-translational modification, ADP-ribosylation, regulating...
