Ciliary Membrane Lipid Homeostasis in Health and Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 58, 19 October 2026.
This review systematically delineates the distinct lipid landscapes of ciliary membranes, including the spatial organization of phosphoinositides, cholesterol, and sphingolipids. It elucidates how these lipids orchestrate ciliogenesis, signal transduction, and membrane dynamics in cilia beating, and highlights how their dysregulation drives ...

Telomere length in Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental Parasitology, 2008
Trypanosoma brucei thwarts the host immune response by replacing its variant surface glycoprotein (VSG). The actively transcribed VSG is located in one of approximately 20 telomeric expression sites (ES). Antigenic variation can occur by transcriptional switching, reciprocal translocations, or duplicative gene conversion events among ES or with the ...

TbGT8 is a bifunctional glycosyltransferase that elaborates N-linked glycans on a protein phosphatase AcP115 and a GPI-anchor modifying glycan in Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The procyclic form of Trypanosoma brucei expresses procyclin surface glycoproteins with unusual glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchor side chain structures that contain branched N-acetyllactosamine and lacto-N-biose units.

Identification of novel components of Trypanosoma brucei editosomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The editosome is a multiprotein complex that catalyzes the insertion and deletion of uridylates that occurs during RNA editing in trypanosomatids. We report the identification of nine novel editosome proteins in Trypanosoma brucei.

Association between IL1 gene polymorphism and human African trypanosomiasis in populations of sleeping sickness foci of southern Cameroon. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2019
BACKGROUND:Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT) is a neglected tropical disease caused by infections due to Trypanosoma brucei subspecies. In addition to the well-established environmental and behavioural risks of becoming infected, there is evidence for ...

Harnessing Extracellular Vesicles for Precision Diagnostics and Infectious Disease Management: Integrating Host‐ and Pathogen‐Derived Cues

open access: yesExploration, Volume 6, Issue 5, October 2026.
This review summarizes the diagnostic and monitoring potential of host‐pathogen extracellular vesicles (hpEVs) in infectious diseases, advances in their isolation and analysis, and challenges to clinical translation. ABSTRACT Conventional infectious disease diagnostics often rely on detecting pathogen‐derived factors or an immune response directed ...

A bacterial protein inhibitor of dUTPase disrupts zebrafish embryogenesis through a conserved active‐site mechanism

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Deoxyuridine triphosphatase (dUTPase) is essential for DNA replication fidelity and embryonic development in metazoa, yet whether a protein inhibitor can acutely disrupt dUTPase function in a living vertebrate has not been tested. The Staphylococcus aureus Stl protein inhibits diverse dUTPases in vitro, but its efficacy in a eukaryotic ...

TrypanoCyc: a community-led biochemical pathways database for Trypanosoma brucei. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The metabolic network of a cell represents the catabolic and anabolic reactions that interconvert small molecules (metabolites) through the activity of enzymes, transporters and non-catalyzed chemical reactions.
