CYP5122A1, a novel cytochrome P450 is essential for survival of Leishmania donovani.
BACKGROUND: Cytochrome P450s (CYP450s) are hemoproteins catalysing diverse biochemical reactions important for metabolism of xenobiotics and synthesis of physiologically important compounds such as sterols. Therefore, they are functionally important for survival of invading pathogens. One such oppor...
