Virulence factor |
the deletion of both LYT1 alleles in the CL Brenner strain (the wild type [WT]) resulted in a null mutant T. cruzi clone (L16) that shows an attenuated phenotype in cell culture models. The infection of adult Swiss mice with 10(3) trypomastigotes of both clones revealed a significant reduction in infective behavior of L16, as shown by direct parasitemia, spleen index, and quantitation of tissue parasite burden, suggesting the loss of virulence in the null mutant clone.[Ref7001:Zago et al., 2008]

hypothetical protein |
Virulence factor |
p85.1 is expressed as mRNA and the corresponding protein is found on the surface of virulent Trypanosoma cruzi but not attenuated ones. virulent parasites not only gained the ability to cause high parasitemia but also caused higher mortality rates than the attenuated parasites. |

Virulence factor |
deletion of one copy of the TcCRT gene in the attenuated TCC strain generated a safe and irreversibly gene-deleted live attenuated parasite with high immunoprotective properties. Our results also contribute to endorse the important role of TcCRT as a T. cruzi virulence factor.
