NEK kinase TcRDK2 controls differentiation, host-cell infection, and remodeling of the translation initiation machinery in Trypanosoma cruzi
Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiologic agent of Chagas disease, alternates between replicative epimastigotes and amastigotes and non-dividing, mammal-infective metacyclic and bloodstream trypomastigotes. Protein phosphorylation is a major regulatory mechanism in trypanosomatids, whose kinomes reveal an expanded family of NIMA-related kinases (NEKs). Here, we investigated the role of T. cruzi RDK2 (Repressor of Differentiation Kinase 2), a conserved NEK that carries a C-terminal pleckstrin homology...
