Increased transport of pteridines compensates for mutations in the high affinity folate transporter and contributes to methotrexate resistance in the protozoan parasite Leishmania tarentolae
Functional cloning led to the isolation of a novel methotrexate (MTX) resistance gene in the protozoan parasite Leishmania. The…
