Relevance
|
Schistosoma mansoni infects about 200 million people in many tropical and sub-tropical areas of the world causing serious health hazards. The translationally controlled tumour protein (TCTP) is a highly conserved protein that is widely expressed in all eukaryotic organisms. TCTP has been implicated in important cellular processes, such as cell growth, cell cycle progression, malignant transformation and in the protection of cells against various stress conditions and apoptosis.
