Abstract: | Rogers W. P. and Brooks F. 1978. Leucine aminopeptidase in exsheathing fluid of north American and Australian Haemonchus contortus. International Journal for Parasitology8: 55–58. Juveniles of Haemonchus contortus from north America and Australia produced exsheathing fluid containing leucine aminopeptidase when stimulated in tetraborate-carbon dioxide medium. Exsheathment in this medium was inhibited by 1, 10-phenanthroline, 10?3M, and this inhibition was largely reversed by Zn2+, 10?3M. This supports the view that the enzyme is produced by the juveniles and that it is concerned in exsheathment. |
