Hemoglobin endocytosis in Leishmania:A novel target
Leishmania lack a complete heme biosynthetic pathway and must acquire heme from external sources for their survival.
How they acquire heme?
Is it from host hemoglobin?

Purification and characterization of hemoglobin receptor from Leishmania promastigotes
•Membrane proteins from Leishmania promastigotes were solubilized in octyl β-glucoside and ~46 kDa protein was enriched by 50% ammonium sulfate precipitation. Pellet resuspended in low salt buffer containing Triton-X100 was loaded onto SP-Sepharose column. Protein was eluted along a linear gradient of salt concentration. The ~46 kDa receptor protein eluted in fractions corresponding to salt concentration of about 140-190 mM. Hb specifically binds with purified protein.

Role of hemoglobin degradation on the growth of Leishmania
Inhibition of hemoglobin trafficking to the lysosomes in the cells over-expressing Rab7 negative mutant (T21N) compromised the growth of the Leishmaniademonstrating that Rab7 mediated hemoglobin degradation to generate intracellular heme is necessary for The gorwthof Leishmania.

I have shown you how endocytosis and intracellular trafficking is regulated in a unicellular protozoan pathogen through hemoglobinendocytosis in Leishmania. This receptor system appears to be a very significant process to acquire heme from the intracellular degradation of internalized hemoglobin by Leishmania. Inhibition of hemoglobin uptake or its intracellular degradation is found to be detrimental to the cells suggesting that HbR could be a novel therapeutic taget for Leishmaniasis.
