Entamoeba histolytica secretes two haem-binding proteins to scavenge haem
Abstract
Entamoeba histolytica is a human pathogen which can grow using different sources of iron such as free iron, lactoferrin, transferrin, ferritin or haemoglobin. In the present study, we found that E. histolytica was also capable of supporting its growth in the presence of haem as the sole iron supply. In addition, when trophozoites were maintained in cultures supplemented with haemoglobin as the only iron source, the haem was released and thus it...
