L-arginine uptake and L-phosphoarginine synthesis in Trypanosoma cruzi

A very specific L-arginine transporter showing high affinity has been characterized in Trypanosoma cruzi epimastigotes. Uptake was found to be dependent on L-arginine concentration and it was saturable. Values for maximum velocity and Km ranged between 48.1-57.5 pmol·min-1 per 3 x 107 cells and betw...
