Journal of Lipid Research, 1965 On the basis of the unsaturated fatty acids which they synthesize, protists can be grouped in a meaningful way. Thus, the unsaturated fatty acids of the true slime mold are identical with the unsaturated fatty acids of the soil amoebae Acanthamoeba and ...

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.Female Bombus vestalis cuckoo bumblebees were introduced to a flight arena containing four identical opaque boxes, featuring slits to release volatiles from the bumblebees inside. When only one box contained a developing host colony, the cuckoos were able to locate their hosts among the four boxes with 66.2% accuracy.

Common pathways and outliers in glucose catabolism across Trypanosomatidae
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Trypanosomatid parasites, including Trypanosoma sp., Leishmania sp., Phytomonas sp., and Vickermania sp., share a common motif: a metabolism built around the glycosome, a unique peroxisome‐derived organelle housing the first steps of glycolysis. Yet, these organisms have evolved remarkably diverse strategies to catabolize glucose, excreting distinct ...

Large circular mitochondrial DNA in Crithidia luciliae
, 1975 A novel circular DNA, 11.3 μm in contour length, has been found in a pure kinetoplast DNA fraction of Crithidia luciliae. The mitochondrial nature of the kinetoplast and the absence of these large circular molecules in the nuclear fraction of DNA suggest

Structural Insights Into the Function of Leishmania major Adenylosuccinate Lyase
Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 10, Page 1686-1701, October 2026.ABSTRACT One of several intriguing aspects of kinetoplastid biochemistry is the complete dependence on host purines and purine recycling due to the lack of a de novo purine biosynthesis pathway. Adenylosuccinate lyase (ASL, EC 4.3.2.2) is a key enzyme in the purine synthesis pathway responsible for the conversion of adenylosuccinate into adenosine ...
