egg LAP plays a central role in hatching of the miracidium from the schistosome egg Schistosoma mansoni
-
additional information the SmLAP1 andSmLAP2 genes have different expression patterns in diverse stages of the cycle. Whereas both are equally expressed in the blood dwelling stages, schistosomules and adult,SmLAP2 expression is higher in free living larval, miracidia, and in parasitic intra-snail, sporocysts, stages Schistosoma mansoni
