Abstract
⺠The TvCP39 proteinase of Trichomonas vaginalis was identified using a proteomic approach. ⺠TvCP39 is encoded by a 915-bp cathepsin L-like cysteine proteinase gene (tvcp39). ⺠A recombinant TvCP39 mature fragment (TvCP39r) binds to the surface of HeLa cells and protects them from trichomonal destruction. ⺠TvCP39 is a glycosylated cysteine proteinase. ⺠The anti-TvCP39r antibody detects TvCP39 in vaginal secretions of patients with trichomonosis. ⺠TvCP39 is a potential biomarker for trichomonosis.
