3. Cleavage of trypanosome surface glycoproteins by alkaline trypsin-like enzyme(s) in the midgut of <em>Glossina morsitans</em> (Publications)

   Cleavage of trypanosome surface glycoproteins by alkaline trypsin-like enzyme(s) in the midgut of <em>Glossina morsitans</em>

   Relevance:

   flies contain trypsin-like enzymes that cleave the N-terminal domains from living culture-derived parasites. The same extract shows little activity against a variant surface glycoprotein on living bloodstream
