Identification of New Anti-Trypanosoma brucei Leads: An Integrated CRK12-Guided Virtual Screen With Experimental Validation. [PDF]
An integrated computational‐experimental workflow enabled CRK12‐guided hit discovery against Trypanosoma brucei under limited structural and ligand data. The workflow of virtual screening and anti‐T. brucei bioassays identified 4 hit compounds, including three low‐micromolar leads (IC50 = 1.47, 0.81, and 1.33 μM).

Cathepsin-L can resist lysis by human serum in Trypanosoma brucei brucei. [PDF]
Closely related African trypanosomes cause lethal diseases but display distinct host ranges. Specifically, Trypanosoma brucei brucei causes nagana in livestock but fails to infect humans, while Trypanosoma brucei gambiense and Trypanosoma brucei ...

Identification of compounds with anti-proliferative activity against Trypanosoma brucei brucei strain 427 by a whole cell viability based HTS campaign. [PDF]
Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT) is caused by two trypanosome sub-species, Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense and Trypanosoma brucei gambiense. Drugs available for the treatment of HAT have significant issues related to difficult administration regimes ...

The system of genetic exchange in Trypanosoma brucei and other trypanosomatids [PDF]
In this chapter, we discuss our current understanding of the systems of genetic exchange in trypanosomatids and the im-pact the recent genome projects have had on this area of research.

Comparative SILAC proteomic analysis of Trypanosoma brucei bloodstream and procyclic lifecycle stages [PDF]
The protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei has a complex digenetic lifecycle between a mammalian host and an insect vector, and adaption of its proteome between lifecycle stages is essential to its survival and virulence. We have optimized a procedure for

Tracking autophagy during proliferation and differentiation of Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]
Autophagy is a lysosome-dependent degradation mechanism that sequesters target cargo into autophagosomal vesicles. The Trypanosoma brucei genome contains apparent orthologues of several autophagy-related proteins including an ATG8 family. These ubiquitin-

Molecular Identification of ABC2 Transporter Gene Encode Protein Ngawi Trypanosoma evansi Isolate that suspected resistance to Isometamidium Chloride [PDF]
This study aims to determine the profile of the ABC2 encoding transporter on Trypanosoma evansi (T. evansi) Ngawi isolates, Indonesia, exposed with Isometamidium Chloride (ISM). This study used blood samples of mice containing Trypanosoma evansi that had

The exosome of Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]
The yeast exosome is a complex of at least 10 essential 3'-5' riboexonucleases which is involved in 3'-processing of many RNA species. An exosome-like complex has been found or predicted to exist in other eukaryotes but not in Escherichia coli. The unicellular parasite Trypanosoma brucei diverged very early in eukaryotic evolution.
