Conservation of structure and function of DNA replication protein A in the trypanosomatid Crithidia fasciculata

, 1992
Human replication protein A (RP-A) is a three-subunit protein that is required for simian virus 40 (SV40) replication in vitro. The trypanosome homologue of RP-A has been purified from Crithidia fasciculata. It is a 1:1:1 complex of three polypeptides of

Sequence and biochemical characterization of equilibrative nucleoside transporters from Crithidia fasciculata: seeking ligand binding residues

, 2010
Eukaryotic cells acquire purines via de novo synthesis or salvage mechanisms. Unlike human cells, protozoan parasites from the Apicomplexan and Trypanosomatid lineages such as Plasmodium, Toxoplasma, Leishmania, Trypanosoma and Crithidia species lack de ...

Dual role of sequence-dependent DNA curvature in nucleosome stability: the critical test of highly bent Crithidia fasciculata DNA tract

, 2004
In spite of the knowledge of the nucleosome molecular structure, the role of DNA intrinsic curvature in determining nucleosome stabilization is still an open question.

Inhibition of polyamine biosynthesis in Crithidia fasciculata by d,l-α-difluoromethylornithine and d,l-α-difluoromethylarginine

, 1991
Using Crithidia fasciculata as a model organism for Trypanosoma cruzi, we have examined the effects of d,l-α-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) and d,l-α-difluoromethylarginine (DFMA) on growth and polyamine synthesis.

Nucleoside Hydrolase From Crithidia Fasciculata: Metabolic Role, Purification, Specificity, and Kinetic Mechanism

, 1991
Crithidia fasciculata cells grown on complex medium with added [8-14C,5\u27-3H]inosine or [8-14C,5\u27-3H]adenosine metabolize \u3e50% of the salvaged nucleosides through a pathway involving N-glycoside bond cleavage.
