Heme A synthesis and CcO activity are essential for Trypanosoma cruzi infectivity and replication
Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease, presents a complex life cycle and adapts its metabolism to nutrients’ availability. Although T. cruzi is an aerobic organism, it does not produce heme. This cofactor is acquired from the host and is distributed and inserted into different hem...
