Analysis of NLS and rRNA binding motifs in the L25 ribosomal protein from Leishmania (viannia) braziliensis: investigation of its diagnostic capabilities.

abstract：:In parallel with massive research efforts in human schistosomiasis over the past 30 years, persistent efforts have been made to understand the basis for compatibility and incompatibility in molluscan schistosomiasis. Snail plasma contains molecules that are toxic to trematodes, but these seem to kill only species that...
