[Leish-l] luciferase-transfected Leishmania

[sima rafati]

Dear Prof Goto
We do have L.major transfected with GFP alone as well as expressing both GFP and luciferase. For L.infantum, at the moment only GFP transfected is available. I will be in Leishmania vaccine meeting on Sept 1st in Brazil ..... if it is not too late for you, otherwise let me know how can I transfer live parasite to you.
Best wishes
Sima

Dear Shaw,
We would like to work with in vivo immaging in leishmaniasis in mouse model, and instead of GFP expressing parasites, luciferase-transfected Leishmania would be desirable. We are interested for the moment in L. major and L. chagasi/infantum. Is there any group that could provide us with these transfected Leishmania, preferentially from Brazil, because to receive from abroad the burocracy is very very complex.
Best regards,
Hiro
