Abstract

Introduction. Trypanosoma cruzi is the causative agent of Chagas disease. During infection in mammalian hosts two main forms of the parasite are observed: trypomastigotes and amastigotes. During differentiation each stage of the parasite expresses a specific proteins pattern of phase, which are responsible for their morphological, biochemical and biological properties that could play an important role in the infectivity, virulence and survival of the parasite.
Objective. To realize an expression analysis differential between the stages tripomastigote and amastigote of isolated of T. cruzi I, using the electrophoresis in two dimensions and identification of proteins differential expressed by means of mass spectrometry.
Materials and methods. A clone of the isolated MHOM/07/338 of T. cruzi I was used. The protein profiles of the stages of the parasite were obtained by electrophoresis in two dimensions, which were visualized in gels dyed with blue of Coomassie. The images were analyzed with software PDQuest and the proteins differential expressed were identified by MALDI TOF or LC MS/MS.
Results. The bidimensional gels showed an average of 325 protein spots in each stage. The comparative analyses detected 21 spots over expressed in the stage tripomastigote and 30 in the stage amastigote. 16 proteins were selected for identification by mass spectrometry and classified in different functional categories.
Conclusions. The findings show to differential expression between tripomastigotes and amastigotes of exclusive proteins of related T. cruzi, mainly with glucolític metabolism and cytoskeleton and therefore they would be target potentials for the drug design.
