Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase::6-Phosphogluconolactonase from the Parasite <i>Giardia lamblia</i>. A Molecular and Biochemical Perspective of a Fused Enzyme

<i>Giardia lamblia</i> is a single-celled eukaryotic parasite with a small genome and is considered an early divergent eukaryote. The pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) plays an essential role in the oxidative stress defense of the parasite and the production of ribose-5-phosphate. In this...
